"kate-tunes" for my sweetie-pie . . .

dear kate,
today i was thinking about you
as usual . . .
and i decided to put some music on this blog
so that you can listen to it while you
are reading my notes!
i'm calling the music
"kate-tunes"
and they are special songs that i'm choosing
just for you!
i love you so much
and can't wait to see you again
soon
love,
grammy xox

dear kate,
i am so happy that you are getting to spend so much time with auntie beka!
when you were much younger, she loved it when you came to visit
and always wanted to show you off to her friends!
now you are getting to be even more fun
and auntie beka loves spending time with you!
you are getting very close to her while she spends the summer
working in bonnyville and living with you and mommy.
she is helping mommy and
getting first-hand experience in what motherhood is all about!
beka loves to help feed you and bath you . . .
she loves to play with you . . .
and she loves to take you for a walk in your stroller!
you are blessed to have such a loving auntie . . . auntie beka!
and i love her too!
love,
grammy xo

you are special . . .

dear kate,

you are such a special baby girl

and you are loved so much!

you are the joy of everyone's heart!

i really can say that i don't know a smarter baby

at age 14 months

than you

it is unbelievable!!

you mimic everything you see

it is so cute and funny at times!

you have no trouble letting us know what you need and want

and most of the time . . . it's . . .

"mommy!"

"mommy - mommy - mommy"

i think you must say that word at least 50 times a day!!!

you also really like to play with keys

you take your plastic keys and open everything you can

if there is a slot or hole anywhere

you will put the key in it and turn it

how smart is that?!!

i love you so much, katie

and you are always in my prayers . . .

love,

grammy xoxo
