Friend!


Is there a better gift than a book? 
Is there a better gift than three books!?
Is there a better gift than three books that have been written 
by a dear friend!?

There goes all my plans to do things.  I will have to sit and read. 
Danika has taken one to read, and Luka another one. 

I am so proud of her! She really did it!
Way back when, in 1988 she was determined to become an author.
We lost touch for a wee while, being so busy with life, but it is 
amazing to have you back in my life again!

Back in 1988, we traveled Europe together. She came to Holland,
I went to New York City. We cried at the train stations in Paris. 
We stayed in a youth hotel in Amsterdam
She made me go into a high school in Italy impromptu 
( just because we happened to walk by it )
and I have really really missed her!

Now I just have to talk her into moving to the South of France!
