In Memory of Checkers

Well, as we thought about the great year we had in 2007, Solace pointed out to me that it was great, but that we did have a big loss in the family with the death of Checkers dog. (This is all being brought up again for her as their classroom pet "Fireball Toadie" died over the holiday break). So, this is in loving memory of Checkers dog! (As a side note, the 3 things Ender asked Santa for were a kid set of tools, a puppy for himself, and a puppy for his grandpa so he wouldn't be so sad about checkers anymore.)
