a-little-more-like-thee.mp3 Since that link worked for the song I will try and send you a daily song from an LDS artist or choir it can be your daily song, here’s one that everyone can relate to but I think you may have to listen to it several times and listen carefully to the words as it is a little faster.

Lovely, Lainie. Thank you. As long as you send them, I will listen. I usually come into the site anywhere from 10:30 to 12:30.
Here’s a chance for just a chat between you and me.
You told me how well Casey is doing. I will write to her again this weekend. I’m so very happy and pleased that everything is going well for her. Ann and Jim need to be made aware of the good upbringing that they gave her that has enabled her to come this far. They took her to church, and she was taught of Jesus Christ and his Resurrection. It is in her mind and heart. The Robbins’ family have suffered much sadness, and I understand it so well, as I am on their page and want only happiness for Casey. Please tell them how very much I appreciate all that they did for her. There is no possible way that Luis and I could have done that.
I think you answered this once, but I’m not sure. Did I give you the pretty little box with the silver bracelets in it, and the pajama bottoms? Did you give them to Casey as a Christmas present from Luis and me?
How are your jobs going? Or is it just the one job with Home Depot?
Are you still hoping and praying to get Beth to church? I am.
Thanks again for the music. I love you. I’m posting this on the web, but here it is for you.
Tony’s birthday is tomorrow…the 29th. He’s having a real birthday. His big 40. His cell ph. is 386-747-4909.

Yes, it has been a learning experience for the Robbins, I had to get Casey as far away from her grandmother as I could. Her grandmother doesn’t mean to but she is a major enabler of Casey and they have constantly been reprimanded from Casey’s councilors for trying to still give her too much. Its funny I saw on the news last night how Britney Spear’s mother was talking about how she was very pleased that Britney’s father was the one who was able to get Britney to wake up and get it together , no one else knew what to do, but you see Britney’s father is a recovering addict and he is the only one who knew what to do. So, when Dad questioned why I was the one who had to step in and take over I told him “Dad, I was the only one who knew how to save her life”. Of, course it is still up to Casey now and she is doing well. She is passed 6 months sober now, got her GED and taking classes at a business school. She lives in the treatment center apartments now next door to the center and taking business classes. I am working at Home Depot. I get enough hours there. I can’t work any more because then I couldn’t teach sunday school on sunday and the trade off isn’t worth it.I am also starting to take one or two classes a semester at Jeff State starting in the summer to get certified as a designer. When I pray about it I am strongly urged to go to school, so that is what I have to do.

That all sounds good, Lainie. Luis and I pray for our children every night of our lives. Sometimes altogether, and sometimes individually, as we see the needs. We pray for Casey, too. We pray for Jani. We pray for posterity. I still feel so responsible for what happened to our family.
You said Casey’s address is still the same. I sent the last letter there. I guess it was received, because it didn’t come back. I’ll write another this weekend.
