first morning in ontario!

dear kate,

this morning when i opened my eyes, i was so happy!

do you know why?

because you were here! and you were waking up at nammy's house this morning!

and guess what you had for breakfast?

no . . . not oatmeal!

you had fruit loops!!!

when your mommy was a little girl like you, i never bought fruit loops!

i always made her oatmeal!

and, of course, we will have lots of healthy breakfasts and food here . . .

but you are my little granddaughter - and that makes it special!

so . . . sometimes we can have junk food!

and when you come to nammy's house, you can have fruit loops!!!

yeah!!!!

love,

nammy xox

yipee!!!!

dear kate,

today is the day you arrive for your summer holidays at nammy's!!

yipee!!!

i can't wait to see you at 2 o'clock this afternoon when your airplane lands in ontario!!

today we will get settled in, unpack your suitcases . . . and see everyone.

and . . . i know you'll be playing with all the "new" toys i have here!

nammy has all kinds of presents to give you too!

when bedtime comes, nammy will read you a special bedtime story

and you can wear your new jammies

and then go to sleep in your own room all decorated for you!

hmmmmm . . . what will we do tomorrow?

we'll just have to see . . .

love,

your turn next . . .

dear kate,

here is a picture of mommy and me taken just yesterday while mommy was visiting me here in ontario.

we were all invited to a wedding, and that is why mommy came here. her friend, becci, was getting married and mommy flew in just for the weekend!

we had so much fun - even though she was only here for 3 days!

i kept telling mommy that i can't wait for one more month until she comes back for a long vacation . . . with you!!!

when i took her to the airport to go home to you . . . i wasn't sad, because i know that in no time at all you will be coming here in an airplane with mommy!

we are going to have so much fun playing, and swimming, and doing fun things!

i can't wait! i'm counting the days!

love,

nammy xox

your auntie steph is a queen!

dear kate,

guess what?

auntie stephanie has a new place to work!

it's the dairy queen!

and you know what that means?

it means she will be able to make you a super-duper ice cream cone when you come in the summer!

you are going to love it!

love,

nammy xox
