I was lucky to have my picture with Leo Carlin, 5th grader, wearing the shirt of the school that he wants to attend. Leo is fighting a serious cancer but he is at Children's Hospital, a great place for that fight. We said a prayer together that God would direct the medicines to do the required work. A cheerful and polite kid. He will, God willing, thrive at Saint Joseph's Prep.

On Bruce Maivelett's birthday we ate well: clams, mussels and paella. And for dessert two pecan pies...one made with chocolate added! One up on my roast chicken and berry crumble dessert! But it is the 50th after all, a birthday that I celebrated years ago but in the same house.

Pictures of James with friends and Mary Bur with her brother
Thanks to Mary for a great party on her Jubilee. The family and her friends enjoyed it. And thanks to West Philadelphia Catholic High School for being so good to us visitors.
