Katelyn’s Visit

Our friend Al Bell’s daughter Adrian Parks and her husband Stephen recently adopted a little girl from Europe. Her name is Katelyn and she is seven years old. While she may be about four years older than the twins, they have about the same grasp of the English language. Our language is her second, and she is a quick study. Her vocabulary was greatly enhanced by her visit to our house as the boys taught her a number of new words her mother might have missed like; steamer, coal car, gondola car, box car, tanker car, caboose, train station and railroad.
