I think the idea is great and something to look back on with good thoughts.

The other thing is what Mrs. Bell had to say about his Autobiography.

"I can hear your voice in your writing-this is a wonderful skill. You have done a very good job on this project. I loved reading every chapter-especially 'My brothers' and 'Singing'. Be sure to share this book with your parents-I know your Mom will love it!"

And that is the way she has been all year. Tells them what they need to fix but reassures them along the way. I couldn't have said it any better.
