First aid training is a *good* thing... the more the better. I'll think about it while I'm gone, and try to work up some plans....

As for my parents, I'm surprised they haven't showed up and dragged me away themselves by now... of course, summer isn't a quiet time on a farm the way it is here. But my mother's calls have been getting increasingly insistent, and I do want her to meet them both.

I think Maddie is nervous about it, though. She knows I've been gushing, and now she's worried that they'll expect a paragon.
