I am definitely beginning to feel the effects of school coming to an end. It seems as though all class are speeding up to cram every ounce of curriculum down the students throats. College Composition has a ten page paper due at the end of April and I feel the pressure coming on. Something to look forward to is the last ever NHS meeting for seniors!! Make sure to attend for final graduation announcements and a wrap up on service hours. Another exciting event is JA this weekend! Girls, grab your dresses and get ready! Last, but not least, is prom on May 3. The last dance will be sad but should also be a fun time for all.

Here is an interesting story I found on the web!
In Kentucky, a woman who suffers from osteogenesis-imperfecta, a type of dwarfism that caused her to be a maximum height of 28 inches, had her second child. Stacey Herald was told that she would never be allowed to have children since she was too small and her internal organs would be compacted. She said that her stomach was so big that she "looked like a snail" and an "Idaho potato with arms and legs." Stacey is married to a man of normal height and their first child suffered from the same disease as Stacey. Their newborn child Mukea, is expected to be normal height.
