because then I can use context clues to figure it out. Tomorrow Dad Will Still Be Deaf shocked me because it was a VHS. I have not watched one of these since I was a kid. Kelsey even showed up as I was watching the video and we were reminiscing on our childhood. That was neat because I was able to compare my upbringing to Bonnie Kraft’s.
