I am honer for having the opportunity and thanks to God for being a part...

Castalia C. responds:
Kristin, I have no words to express my feelings. I do miss all of you very much and I wish you didn't have to move so far. I had a wonderful time working for your family. Thank you so much for the last pictures you send from the girls.
