    How's New Jersey this time of year? We are having some rain, more than usual this year so it isn't always sunny in California. We had a state of emergency over the fall with the horrible fires in L.A. Thanks to the firefighters who work so hard to put them out...

  • Lorri

    Thanks so much. Amanda and I are sitting in front of the laptop and today we went to thank the EMTS that saved her in the car that night. They kept saying how lucky she is and what a miracle. She is very confused and I found her downstairs this morning, she thought she was getting ready for school. She thought she had two moms last night. I think sometimes I am going to die from heartbreak and worry, I'm so scared, but I know I can't be. It's real nice to hear from you and talk to such a nice person and hear positive things.
    Thanks so much,
    Lorri
