Almost a Diva
Linda stared at the wedding invitation on her writing desk, reading and re-reading to make sure her mind wasn't playing tricks on her.

A few years ago that was plenty. But now more of the families were having children. Children who needed a teacher. Thomas glanced down at the catalog he had been studying.
