Well the cast is off! It is a great relief to finally get my hand off. I did not realize all the things I couldn't do so now I can type again, yea! The doctor gave me some hand exercises to do but other than that I'm great. So now its work, work, and more work. Ernesto is deep into his classes and loving it. Joaquin is busy with school. He really loves his ROTC class and seems to be doing well. As for the kids, well they are a handful but they are doing good. Next thing is flu shots. We're gonna get them all. Hopefully we can stay clear of that nasty bug. Love Emma
