Elly: Hello, Mom? Lizzie took her first steps today! She's walking! Those little rain boots you sent are going to be put to good use. Yes, the boots, the hat and the coat... she's able to wear them all!
I must admit it’s getting harder and harder for me to enjoy reading this strip. I loved the older version so much because it paralled so many events of my own life. I always wanted to know what going to happen next. The strip, as it is now, is quickly getting stale and I find myself no longer looking forward to the next day’s strip. Please bring back the old strip.
WildMustang1262:
We were in the 70s right up until John mentioned Shania Twain a couple of weeks back. Now I’m just confused. Is it the 70s? Is it present day? Or are we just floating through time? I would actually prefer it to take place when it originally took place. I don’t find anything wrong with that, in fact I think it’s charming.
Go to fborfw.com, and click on the “spill your beans” coffee talk banner. Lynn addresses the time of these new/old strips. She just put it up today. You will find your answers there, AliKzam.
Auugh. I keep saying Micheal and Elizabeth need to be a year older before Farley comes into the picture. Micheal is in 1rst grade then now he’s in kindergarten.
I enjoy reading this strip as well as the one other I have time to follow. I do not enjoy reading the inane comments of a bunch of people with too much time on their hands. Please get rid of comments, Gocomics!

Please keep doing the strip the way you are. I’m a fairly new reader of the strip and I enjoy getting the background with the new twists.

Little white lies keep feeling from being hurt. She will fit into them all too soon.

I feel like we are going back to 1970’s, huh? Dance in disco music or whatever we do in 1970’s. :-)
