TWO SAGES

Coffee in one hand

book in another

walk to the back deck

hot spring morning

sit and observe

Gary Snyder in mind

nature in senses

Snyder says

"anything looked at with love

and attention

becomes very interesting"

close book

enough

listen to the traffic

let it go

pay attention to now

purple sage

flower buds

almost blooming

hold lovingly in hand

texture soft

tender

imparts fragrance

deep breath

inhale texture

fresh

alive

pungent

sage

two sages

Snyder and purple

one for the mind

one for the senses

meld in the moment

Paul and Paul Adoption Agency LLC

15 April 2008

Dear Ms Xborris

This letter is to inform you that Mr and Mrs Roger Paul, herein referred to as the, adoptive parents, have been in contact with our agencies lawyers regarding the said child now in there temporary custody.

At the request of the adoptive parents, said minor child, Ginger Rogers Paul Boris, will remain in their custody until said minor is 18. At which time, said minor, will be considered an adult. As per our lawyers request, visitation rights, and child support will be sent to the adoptive parents on a monthly basis until said child turns 18.

Our agency lawyers have suggested to the court that a minimum child support of$300 per month, plus any medical expenses they incur be sent directly to them. The court also instructs Ms xborris to set up a college educational fund for said minor. The monies from this fund, $200 per month will be place in a trust fund for said minor. This fund will be administered by the adoptive parents to be used by said minor. Should said minor decide not to attend college, this fund will be held until said minor turns 21 years of age. At that time at that time the adoptive parents can use said fund to take a vacation to Tahiti.

As per the courts instructions pertaining to said visitations. The court hereby instructs Ms xborris that she can have one day a week, to be determined by the adoptive parents, and one weekend a month. The times for pickup and return of said child can be determined by the adoptive parents.

Failure of Ms xboris to follow through on any of the courts instruction will be considered a failure on the part of Ms xborris, and visitation rights will be terminated, and Ms xborris will be remanded to the Benton County jail prior to being sent to OSP. The court herein hopes to impress upon Ms xboris the importance of her parental duties and the financial and emotional obligation Ms xboris has to said minor child.

It has been brought to the courts attention that said minor child has been emotionally abused as a result of separation from Ms xboris. As a result the adoptive parents are getting therapy for said minor. The court instructs Ms xborris to cover the cost incurred, $200 per hour, monies can be sent directly to the adoptive parents.

Sincerely yours,

CEO of Paul and Paul Adoption Agency, LLC
