Dear Readers,

I hope you're enjoying the warm weather! It's been lovely here. The flowers are in full bloom. I love to garden, so I'm enjoying the fruits of my labors.

Life has been busy, but I'm currently working on a new project, one that I hope everyone will enjoy. I'll keep you informed as the work progresses.

There is nothing like a good book to take to the beach... Why not check out Judith E. French's Blood Ties and Hunter Morgan's Are You Scared Yet? It's a little suspense to chill you on a hot day!

I have some wonderful news to share. We have a new addition to our family since my last letter. Our second granddaughter, Elizabeth Leigh McCarthy, was born on May 18. She weighed 6 lbs. 10 oz. and was 18 inches long, and she has a lovely crop of dark hair on her tiny head. We're happy to welcome her. What a precious little girl!

I wish you all good health, happiness, and prosperity.

With warm regards,

Candace McCarthy
