Grandmom Bev,

I really appreciate all of your insight and assistance. Morgen and Emerson

are going in for a clean out in December and while I was explaining this to

Mo's teacher she asked for some more info that her first grade class could

see to better understand, so with that said, any extra tapes, wash buttons,

etc. would be greatly appreciated. I would be happy to reimburse you for

any expense. Let me know. Our address is as follows

Morgen and Emerson Jaques

7 N. 600 W. Blackfoot, ID 83221

Thanks in advance! kris
