Huckleberries Online

Ah’m Your Huckleberry 2

A funny thing happened to Sandpoint High J-instructor Erin Daniel in her sixth period class Monday. Her water broke. In an e-mail announcing the birth of little Emma Marie, she blames the poor timing on Principal Jim Soper. Quoth: "He was in my room 5th, and just being a real pain." Editor Chris Ginzton of the award-winning Cedar Post was the hero of the day, even though he turned the wrong way down a street as he was driving his adviser to the hospital. Erin's favorite line from Chris during the rush to the hospital? "Can I help? Should I be helping you breathe or anything??" On the way out of the hospital, Chris was visibly shaken, saying, "I don't know how dads DO that!" Or moms! Erin and Emma are doing fine. And so is Chris.
