Her sweet emails always begin with a warning, "Don't judge me on the spelling, these keys are too small!" :) The new bloggers from the Muthande Society are a testament to the fact that one is never too old to learn something new, provided the will is there. A real inspiration tale, and one I can't wait to keep hearing more about. Congratulations to all.
