Hello again, dear readers! It's a busy and, let's face it, sometimes stressful time of year. We urge you to take a bit of time for yourself to regroup, even if it's just a bit of deep breathing or a quick walk outdoors. If any of you have coping mechanisms for stress that might be helpful to others, we'd love to hear them. And now, onward to your letters.

Almost all of the kids got it – and they are all vaccinated, some even with the booster shot.
