Cathy, Just viewed your portfolio, and wow am I impressed. Who would have ever thought there would come a day when I could say I knew you when you were just a teacher at KidsPeace! You know, even though the pictures are small they really are very clear and detailed. Again, I am very impressed! Maybe sometime, you wouldn't mind giving me a signed print of the Blue Unicorn? I would really love to have one. Well, enough for now, it's getting late. Love ya, meJan
