"Miss Emily" and "Mr. Cooper" from Quincy, Massachusetts~







Happy New Year Mama Sue !

We are sorry for not writing sooner, but things have been a
little hectic around here for the past month or so. Here is a
short synopsis of what has been happening:

Two hours into cooking our Thanksgiving turkey our oven
caught on fire. (The bottom electric cooking coil burned out
and broke into two pieces. Our neighbors always go to their
brother's house for the holiday so they were kind enough to finish
cooking our turkey). The day turned out well and the food was
delicious.

Two days after Thanksgiving, our brother Tim was admitted to the
hospital with pneumonia.

On December 22nd, Mom was in Milton Hospital ER for 6 1/2 hours
with a final diagnosis of pneumonia in the right lung and two fractured
ribs from her severe coughing. Mom was on the couch most of
Christmas Day and besides watching us open our stockings, doesn't
remember much else of the day.

As of this date, things are getting back to normal. We have a nice
new stove, Tim is all better now. Mom's pneumonia is also better
now, but the ribs are still bothering her a little.

As for us, we are enjoying our new toys and all the snow we have
been having. Hope you like the pictures we are sending your way.

Love,

Emily & Cooper
