We were a religious, practicing, Catholic family - Mass together on Sunday, Catholic schools, and parents who practiced everything they preached. A great gift was their total absence of any derogatory talk about people of any race or culture and we were on a street of many faiths, though no other races at that early time.

Without butterflies, the world would soon have few flowers. There is enough room in the sky for all flyers.
I feel blessed to have had such a background, where animals, food raising, harvesting and canning were a natural part of life.
Visits to 'the country' were very important to me growing up, especially working on the farm, experiencing all the wonders of cats and chickens and pigs and calves and outhouses!
