We are going to have a family from Myanmar, with 3 children close in age to ours, stay with us this week for 2-10 days. We are very excited! They are refugees and settling in the USA, so we'll be able to stay connected to them after they leave our home. Kindly Eowyn and Coco said the children could sleep in their bunk beds and old pink cot! The sun is shining today and we're going out to have a picnic at the clay pools, on the Skykomish River, and to spend time with Bens' parents.

Love to you all,

Megs

Thanks for reading this - I feel honoured by your interest in my life!! I want to write a novel, with beautiful sentences and adroitly crafted chapters. Since preschool I have read voraciously, and appreciate exquisite writing in multifarious forms. I have natural writing talent, and derive deep satisfaction from creating prose, yet I have spent my life longing to write novels and not doing so. The work I am submitting came into existence because I was applying to attend the Iowa Writers’ Workshop. Belonging to this writing community would enable me to be disciplined in producing literature. The tutelage and mentoring I would receive is something I y...
