finally . . . you are here!

dear kate,
i've been so excited all day today!  finally . . . i'll be picking you and mommy up at the airport this afternoon at 4 o'clock!  and finally . . . i can give you a great big hug and kiss!!
it was so wonderful to see you and mommy again!  i know that i just saw you both in april when i came to cold lake for your birthday, but somehow it seems like so long ago!
anyway, now you are here and we are going to have so much fun!
today, when we came home you looked around and remembered everything about our house in ontario!  you even remembered which drawer your special bowl and plate and cup was in!  you are so smart!  wow!
when we got home from the airport, auntie stephanie was there waiting for us!  she was so happy to see you again and you gave her a big hug and kiss!
i had a surprise for you when you came!  it is a new trampoline - just your size!  we both got on it and jumped and laughed - and jumped and laughed - and jumped more and more!  whew!  i was getting tired - but you had energy to spare!  
then . . . a red car pulled into the driveway!  it was great-granny joy coming to see you and mommy!  everyone has been waiting for this special day for so long!!
then we went in to see the turkeys in their coop!  you were really surprised to see them - but, yuk - were they ever smelly!  we had to hold our noses when we went in!
next, frappy came home with kelly.  you ran outside and jumped into his arms!  and, of course, he had a candy for you!!
when we came in again, we went to see your newly decorated bedroom - painted your favourite colour - pink!  you loved it so much!  it is full of fun things like butterflies on the ceiling and lots of dolls and books!


we played with all of your toys and after that we had hamburgers and poutine for supper.
after your bath, you finally went to sleep - excited for all of the fun we will have tomorrow!
now . . . you are sound asleep and it's pretty late (12:30 am).  i think i'm going to go to sleep now too, because i'm pretty sure you'll be up early - raring to go! and tomorrow is going to be a fun-filled day!
i love you my sugar plum, and i'm so happy that you are here with us!
love,
nammy  xox
