The Gum Tree for 2004 July 30

Nothing really notable happened today. Louise received what is called a "Pac Mate" in the mail for her schooling. It is basically a pocket PC, and we are excited because it has a refreshable braille display that allows Louise to be able to read. Louise is now reading the Book of Mormon in Braille for family scripture study, and even though it is taking a while it is good to see her learn how to read independant of a huge magnifier. Other than that it is life as normal. It is also good to hear that Francis is out, and hopefully she will be able to come to Utah to see us all.
