Many of them have settled in the Atlanta area, and I really appreciate when the newspaper writes informs us how they're doing. It's amazing how well they've acclimated and found their happy ending, after all they've endured.<br /><br />Thanks for the recommendation!Susan Flett Swiderskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09425315552148200073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4501852053743373610.post-42780379833151683562015-11-14T15:22:16.993-05:002015-11-14T15:22:16.993-05:00I know a real "lost boy" from the Sudan ...I know a real "lost boy" from the Sudan and his struggle (and the struggles that continue to this day) are an eye opener.

She sure has aged well. <br /><br />I've been thinking of taking the kids to see the movie Goosebumps in the theater. I just stared getting them into the books.
