me, and Brighid was very touched to know there are lots of people pulling
for her. She was scared, but I was absolutely petrified. I only THOUGHT I
had known fear before....

in, and didn't even complain that it wasn't blackwork!

watching now.

and aunt Gemma of Firth came by to see her, and told her she is not allowed
to fight without armor, especially armored dragons! She said she
definitely won't try fighting a dragon again unless she's on her own horse
with armored barding. (Though knowing Brighid, I have to wonder which sort
of barding she means?!?)

uninterrupted sleep, I heard she had a special visitor. Brighid was most
impressed that the Baroness of Elfsea came by and brought her a lovely bag
full of buttons and even some handmade beads (not to mention cool gel
pens). (If the Baron came by as well, many thanks. I'm sure he is just as
pretty as the Baroness.)

quickly her insides heal. After that, she's on another week of bedrest at
home, and won't be able to even ride a bike for a month. During this time,
she's going to turn 12, so if anyone has any ideas for a sedentary birthday
for a kid, please let me know! The swimming and sailing ideas are out, but
I'd like this year to be very special. I am so grateful there's going to
be a 12th birthday. Her accident could have been so much worse.

> Once again, thank you to everyone who has visited, emailed, or called. 
Your care and concern has meant the world to me and my family, especially
Brighid.
