2 Babies - Now 4

Four years ago this month two tiny babies came into the world ... a tiny baby boy with eyes the size of dinner plates, and a little girl with a headfull of hair that would one day be as silken and blonde as Rapunzel's. And although we didn't know it then, those two beautiful babies would be our grandchildren!    Our family cried together at times, and rejoiced together at others, always determined and hopeful that those two babies would forever be ours.

And in the end, what we all learned is what perhaps we knew all along ---- that all it takes to be a family is love. 

Happy Birthday Briceson and EveyLynn.  I love you both dearly.

Kamryn's writing journal

Kamryn filled up her writing journal at school so her teacher sent it home early and gave her a new one. She's a very good story teller, but she spells in a way that only her Aunt Lindsey and Roxie would understand! She got the family spelling gene for sure! I was looking back through it and found this Thanksgiving post about Ant Lise and her bowufrynd coming to town. The picture is of Nonnie's kitchen table covered in food and 9 empty chairs with Lindsey and Cody sitting at one end. It was too sweet!

In case your having trouble following, it actually reads:

SEEING MY FAMILY (they are learning to title a story)

This Thanksgiving my Aunt and her boyfriend flew to Arkansas (Arekinsol). Cody made me and him planes. They are artists. Lindsey tickled me. I gave Lindsey a hug. They left last night. I love my aunt Lindsey and her boyfriend.

She also wrote several stories about None and Papu, and one about how she was going to go visit her Ant Roxe in Nort Carulina and one about her Ant Mylu giving her a dog named Bar (uncle B was not mentioned at all in the giving of the dog!) She actually wrote several stories about her beloved dog Bear, including one about how he peed in the house and got in trouble- with a picture of the crime included!(nice Kam, real nice!) She wrote about her camping trip this summer, and about going to Branson where she watched lots of TV (what a nice vacation!) She wrote about how she got to see snails kiss on a video her mommy showed her about weird bugs (they were mating, but we called it "kissing" when she asked!) She even wrote one about the very special Pink Bear of North Carolina fame. She definitely got her Momma's love of the English language, even if she did get her Aunt Roxie's love of all things phonetic!
