1982 Nd red ink Avon [1983 Suzette graduated from kindergarten]

Dear Grandma and Grandpa

Someday I want to come to your house and see your garden grow. My dad has a bleeding foot (a small cut!). Momma’s selling Avon-she’s the Avon lady. Maybe she will sell Avon to you.

I went swimming at Leafmore and Tim and Paul’s house. [Leafmore Creek Park Club?]

I love you.

Dear Mom & Dad

I’ll join the kids in writing you. Susan and I had an interesting encounter interviewing the owner (Mrs. Heiskell) of a 31-year-old Christian school today. When she announced her categorical opposition to abortion I could not restrain myself- & told her I felt just as strongly-but in opposite direction. This led to a friendly but firm exchange of “positions” & Scriptures. She concluded our daughter would not be happy in the school because parents would undermine the teaching of the school. Life remains a series of interesting encounters & experiences, No the earth is NOT flat.

-& we still love you.
