   We feed the birds, too, but won’t overlook the Ukrainians. My mother was born in Ukraine just before the Russian Revolution. They weren’t hungry, they starved. She never forgot. We never dared to say that we were hungry, but could comment that we had a good appetite for whatever was being served. Thanks to Canada, the United States, and the Mennonites for giving my mother and her family a chance to go past the starvation times.

   I get so tired of the criticism of this strip. It is a cartoon! The birth certificates can go anywhere and nothing will happen to them. In real life, they are easy to replace. No locked safe is needed. Folks, just let up a little bit and enjoy the sentiments being shown. Elly is a good, loving mom, the family is normal and healthy. Let up!

   Yup, Scottish here, too. I used to have an orange dress that I wore on March 17th.

   I was raised by a mother who had starved. She was not hungry as a child, she starved during the Russian Revolution. It was not something to joke about. We were never allowed to say that we were hungry, just that we had a good appetite for our meals.

   We had a small cabinet that we used to store plastic and other sturdy items. My son, at ages 2-3 adored this cabinet and hid in it often. He understood that it was his to play in and only this one cabinet. Not everything is fear and abuse!

   I am a retired teacher. I have never worked a 6 hour day! The formal day was at least 8 hours, then planning, checking work, meetings, after school activities, and so on. Summers usually included weeks of classes to keep our certificates up to date and to rise on the pay scale. Insurance was paid half and we paid half, not free. In addition to the classroom days, there were days for training and such. School supplies had a very small budget, the rest came out of our pockets. I taught in city schools, small towns, and rural schools, everything from Head Start and Kindergarten to Juvenile Detention. Try it!

    I am well aware of that, just expect a kilt to be a tartan.
