AMY BOSMAN — You certainly caught a big fish, Amy! Are you finished with your project on Laura Ingalls Wilder? She surely did have a fascinating life. Her family did not always have it easy when she was young, did they? Have you made any projects for Reformation Day? It is a day to remember how blessed we are to still have the Bible amongst us. Did you know there are large cities in other countries where 99.5% of the people serve idols like Buddha? How sad, isn’t it? We should pray for those who do not have what we have. Have you ever thought that having a Bible is a blessing? Do you memorize texts each week for school or Sunday school? You are right; Psalter 140 is a beautiful song. It is almost like a prayer set to music. “God be merciful to me”-that is an important prayer to pray, isn’t it?

GEMMA & CARLYE KRUL — Yes, I received your answers, thank you, girls. In November’s list you will see the number two behind your names. Yes, I do have daughters. They are 13, 9, and 4, so two of them are the same age as Carlye and Sarah Lynn. Does your little sister like preschool? I wonder if some of the names of the places where you have camped received their names when explorers first came to them. Do you go hiking when you go camping? What else do you do? Thank you for writing.

ADRIANNA, JOSEPH, & SERENA BYERS — Thank you for all your “piled-up” answers! I think goats and calves can be pets as much as chickens can be. What are the names of your five goats? It can be tricky to take care of fish. We had trouble in the very beginning, but eventually we learned what to do, and now it is very easy. Try to start with just one fish. Did you have a good Thanksgiving? Yes, Thanksgiving is in November here, and most people do have turkey for dinner. I hope that we may all have a true thanksgiving in our heart-that is to realize that we do not deserve any of the blessings we receive.

COURTNEY VAN MAREN — Do you like your new uniforms, Courtney? I think the kindergarteners look cute in their jumpers, too. I’m sorry that Tigger died. I’m glad you have a new kitten. How is Piper doing? What a cute name! I have a daughter that always has one or more stories in the works on the computer, too, just like you. Perhaps you could tell me sometime what your story was about which you submitted. I’m sure it was interesting! Yes, I do usually like writing, but sometimes I get writer’s block.

CHIMWEMWE MALANGWASINA — Thank you so much for your letter, Chimwemwe. It was good to hear from you, and I’m glad you joined us in doing the quiz. It is a sad story, isn’t it, when Miriam had leprosy? We can also see in the story, though, how the Lord forgives sins and is so good in making people better again. Can you think of a psalter which speaks of needing to be washed clean of all our sins? Ask the Lord often if He will show you and forgive you your sins, too, okay? We all need this, from the oldest to the youngest. Are you the oldest of the four girls in your family?

Love,
Aunt LenaBeth
