We stayed overnight in Missouri at my friend Angie's house. Her three girls are interesting, funny, and kind-hearted. Melanie is a sophomore and is great in track, plays basketball, and has a horse (Chief) and a dog (Fly). I tagged along with her as she did her morning animal chores. Maria then came out to care for the two goats. John and I enjoyed a leisurely morning and a delicious breakfast as we chatted with Angie. We also got to observe the homeschooling routine of the younger two girls.
