Morse Mountain

Hello,

I hope you all are having a great summer.  Our Morse Mountain gathering was a lot of fun. Thank you to everyone who came along, especially our drivers. It was really nice to see so many (we had 15 of 24 classmates) back together. We also got to see a couple of our new classmates, Kaelin and Calvin, mixing well with the group.

Calvin's mom, Christy, writes a blog about her son. She is an impressive writer and I think many of you would be interested in reading a few of her posts. She gives a very honest glimpse into life with a child with epilepsy. If you read a few, I guarantee you will go through a range of emotions.  Here is a link to her write-up on our trip:

Thanks to Christy for her permission to put the link on here. I think Calvin is a great fit for our class and I let his mom know how happy I was that he was added to our roster. I hope we can give to him as much as I know he will give to us.

I need to decide on the next gathering really soon, so stay tuned. It will be on a Tues or Thurs this time, probably the week of the 10th -16th.

Thank you to everyone who has sent me a letter or a postcard so far.  I look forward to reading more of those. Pat is very happy as well. She has received five cards so far. She says that it brightens her day, every time she gets to read one, so keep them coming!

IXL reminder.  Your username is your first initial and last name added to @brunswick. Your password is your initials.  I would be sshea@brunswick and ss.

Okay, I think that is all the reminders. You would be surprised how many books that I've bought this summer for next year. Well, maybe you wouldn't. I've been booksaling it up. (booksailing?) I'm excited to get them into your hands.

All for now. Thanks for checking in and reading now and then.

Mr. Shea
