we've almost lost the whole summer!

look at that- not even one single post since the beginning of june. lots of stuff has happened since then.

some things have changed.

we moved. changed houses and cities and churches. that's the biggest one! back to fort smith.

grandma and papa got a kitten.

your cousins troy and lincoln are no longer like imaginary cousins; you actually got to meet them!

some things have stayed the same.

you still are afraid of fireworks, but not much else. and not goats, anymore.

you still talk about your friend abby constantly.

you still really look a whole lot like your cousin becky.

and, of course, you are growing and changing so fast we can't keep up. there's no denying that you're growing up. we look at pictures of you lately and say, "wow. she looks so old."

you've learned and done a lot over the summer, like going to brookfield zoo, and learning to spit watermelon seeds and picking tomatoes.


also, you're my big helper. everything for you, you have to do yourself. and everything for others, you have to help with. you're an excellent pudding maker.

i'm afraid that you're going to be terribly sad in a couple days, when sam goes back to school. you sure do love him a lot. and he loves you too. and so does daddy, and so do i.

love, mom
