The children keep growing before our eyes, time goes so fast! Willy and Teddy are so like men, even though I cannot imagine myself to have 13 and 14 year old boys! Willy is starting to go by Will, but Jimmy, Willy’s brothers and sisters, and I will always call him Willy. Willy is getting better and better in baseball. Teddy is becoming smarter and smarter, he at the top of his class academically. Victoria and Ginny have grown apart but still are very much close. Victoria is more of a traditional girl, but Ginny is more modern, she wants to go to a woman’s rights meeting. Henry talks so much; it is hard to hear a voice besides his at our dining table. We love him and yes, we are teaching him manners. Eleanor now goes by Elle. She is so sweet and modest. Lillie takes after Ginny. Lillie is the loudest daughter so far. Alexander is deaf which we just found out, so we will have to learn sign language.
