I wish I would have read this a bit sooner! I just moved out of Fayetteville, but I am still willing to be involved in any way that I can. I just haven't been able to get these kids out of my head for years.
I'm guessing that Mrs. Sodder simply thought that the kids had been irresponsible in their Christmas excitement. Not to mention she was half-asleep.
