Born on the Fourth

Earlier this week, Em and Scott were here working on making the former office/junk room into a viable guest room....a big job!  I sorted some stuff and found an envelope I'd put away  months ago--mom stuff.  Cool to find again.




 Mom (Orlinda Janson Hesch ) was born in 1915, on the 4th of July.  So even if these items don't have anything to do with summer or July, they give us a glimpse of her as a girl--first an essay she wrote at 8 years old when she was a student at St Michaels in Buckman and English was her second language...

...and later when she attended Cathedral, in St Cloud.  No big deal, just too precious to not add here.  She would have been 97 today.  

We still miss her.
