a wonderful surprise!

dear kate,

today we had the most wonderful surprise!

you called on the phone to talk to nammy and frappy!

i guess you must have been talking about us while you were at daddy's . . . and he made the call for you! it was so nice to hear your little voice! i was very interested to hear all of your stories about the fun you are having on holidays with daddy - and visiting your grandma and grampa in bonnyville! they are all so blessed to have you close by.

so, my little sweetie-pie . . . you made my day the happiest ever!

it already seems like "forever" since you were here. the summer has passed by so quickly!

now i am counting down the days until you come again for christmas!

i can't wait to see you again and give you tons of hugs and kisses!

love,

nammy xox

mommy and uncle donny . . .

dear kate,

do you like these pictures of mommy with uncle donny?

guess what?

uncle donny is mommy's brother! yes! and they are both nammy's kids!!

not long after your mommy was born - uncle donny was born!

mommy and uncle donny grew up together.

they played together. they went to school together. they even played tricks on each other!

sometimes they had sister and brother "fights" ... but they always love each other!

and i love them . . . and you!

love,
