5-4-3-2-1- HAPPY NEW YEARS!
Dear Ms.Barnicel (aka Lynn, aka My teacher, aka my friend)
how are you?
i guess i always start out with that cliche' line but... oh well!
~~~
i had a great Christmas and i spent it with my HUGE family, as always! (you just can't catch a break can you? joking! it's always fun to have them over! :) )
i hope your Christmas was better then perfect- meaning you also got to spend it with your family and the people you love!
~~~
New Years came so quickly i forgot about it until a day ago when my cousin Myles said "what are you going to yell after the count-down?" i had no idea what he was talking about and was ready to inlist him in an "asylum" when he said - catching my unaware face - "you know? New Years!"
~~~
my sister was going to say BarfQuwa (barf-KWA) - it's a story for another day but long story short... scrabble gonewrong -
I was going to say "HOLA 'o9!"
and after some thought my cousin asked my uncle Joseph what cats said in French.
My uncle said "Minu!" (Meen-U)
i started cracking up at this point because my uncle is very big and has a beard and looks well not girlie....at all...and when he had said Minu, he had said it in the perfect voice of a little girl!
so now my cousin will shout "Minu!"
~~~
what will you shout Ms.B?
that is if you will be staying up that late, it's funny because it seems that all the kids I KNOW will be staying up and not their parents.
love, hugs, and the new years spirit!
Callan, August, Paul, and Patty!

From Lynn 12/28/08
Dear Ones, It is Saturday afternoon, December 27 and the 'big brown bag' was just unhung, the last and toughest part of this round of chemo. I wait and rest patiently for the effects to subside, blood counts to dip some more before they can rise again, and the welcome words that I can be released for a few days. I hope to return home to recover by Tuesday. Time with Colin and Danny and Jon and my own bed. Everyone here on the 12th floor continues to be wonderful, and I feel the effects of their great care every day. They are patient and wise and helpful round the clock, and the fortitude of everyone through our trying Seattle weather was remarkable and an added blessing. To all of you, my deepest thanks and gratitude. I have this image that I ride along on the wings of your wishes and love, humor, gifts and continued blessings, and I'm convinced they are the source of my good spirits and relative good health. Happy New Year to All! WIth Love and Hugs, Lynn

how are you
Hi Ms. barnicle
How are you. Ive been doing good. I like Ms. Stewart, she's really fun. But of course she isn't as fun as you. Out of the 7 days of winter break so far, I've gone sledding 3 times down a really steep hill. It was really fun. Although I was to chicken to go over the ramp we made. Even though it was tiny. So I have to go, bye!!!!!!!!!
(P.S. Me and the whole class miss you and hope to see you soon)
Sincerely,
Riley S.

MERTH! (doesn't that mean happieness?)
hey Ms.Barnicle,
how are you? with the holidays so near i have been shopping a whole lot.
i got every person in my family something and now i'm pretty much banned from my own money because i spent so much! It's unfare if you ask me but i wasn't asked so...
i've gotten pretty fare in my present story (PRESENT! - get it? hahahaha *ahem* sorry that was a bad pun) i'm up to the beggining of chapter 3. in case you need the URL again here it is - teapotnecklace.blogspot.com
i understand if you haven't found the time to read it, everybody is very busy these days, even me! I haven't written on my own blog for quite some time now even though i'm far into it.
we will be going to Ocean Shores after Xmas- much to my dissapointment. i will be missing a double header in indoor soccer this weekend because of it and i've already missed 2 this season! 2 more, isn't good. (a double header is 2 games one right after another!) i would do anything to come but unfortanely- there is no will, so there is no way!
it's kind of embarrasing- talking only of myself when i do write to you, but i can't think of much else to talk about!
Happy Holidays!
Ms. Barnicle
love,
August, Callan, Paul, and Patty

Hello everyone,
Sorry for no recent posts, Mom is feeling very good right now. The doctors gave her a week of freedom due to her levels being so high. Nordic skiing, party hopping, and cooking have all been regulars for her. She is expected in the hospital this coming tuesday for some more chemo. Hopefully the snow will not postpone the date, but we'll see. Thank you all again for the support and have a very happy holidays.

One more
A blonde calls her boyfriend and says, "Please come over here and help me... I have a killer jigsaw puzzle, and I can't figure out how to get it started."
Her boyfriend asks, "What is it supposed to be when it's finished?"
The blonde says, "According to the picture on the box, it's a tiger."
Her boyfriend decides to go over and help with the puzzle. She shows him where she has the puzzle spread all over the table.
He studies the pieces for a moment, then looks at the box, then turns to her and says, "First of all, no matter what we do, we're not going to be able to assemble these pieces into anything resembling a tiger."
He took her hand and said, "Second, I want you to relax. Let's have a nice cup of coffee, and then....." he sighed, "Let's put all these Frosted Flakes back in the box."

Dear Lynn. I think of you all the time, and especially now. Here is some laughter medicine. Mardi
"Dear Lord" the pastor began,with arms extended and a rapt look on his upturned face,"without you we are but dust..."
He would have continued, but at that moment one very observant little girl, listening carefully, leaned to her mother and asked quitely in her loud little girl voice,
"Mommy,what is butt dust??"
Church was pretty much over at that point...

Hello everyone. Mom is coming home again today and feeling good. Mom has no hair now and is looking like a better Britney Spears. Her spirits are up and she is feeling cheery. She now has a beautiful mac laptop which has made the world to her with music, videos, online connection and lots and lots of love. Thank you to all for your support and kindness. Have A Great Day!!!!!

Hi Ms.B! :)
hello Ms. B!
how are you feeling?
i've been doing great (i guess i'll mention this every time i post)
i really miss you. i've been having trouble getting a post in every once and a while.
i've been sick with a cough and haven't been at school for two days.
it's been kinda wierd imgaining my budds in first period while i watch TV and drink hibiscus tea.
i guess that tea part is irrelavent but o-well!
i can't get over wanting you to teach at madison!
you'd brighten my whole day. the nurse there is kinda scary/intimidating...she told me that she didn't usually send kids home for a cough and headache but since it was my FIRST time in there.... well hopefully you get my point.
post soon!
love,
patty, paul, callan, and august
P.S. the quiz that SOMEHOW got posted on here was totally a glitch. i meant to post it on MY OTHER blog, but it posted here, well gotta go.
