RE: REPLY: I FORGIVE you!

Your shot: Miss
My shot: B6

You don't think that Balen would think it's more ok if he sees you
hugging me first? I'm sure that would make him feel more comfortable,
because I'm sure that he cares very much about what you do.

So it sounds like Balen has said his first word. Have you heard it yet?
I thought for sure that you would be his first word...does he call you
anything? Have you tried to get him to say "Abigail" at all? Maybe you
should give it a try and see what he says.

Even though it's Sunday, I've got a lot to do today. There is so much
work to do, that I've got to take care of some of it during my time off!
That stinks! But that's what we're out here to do - work. We're not
out here to play games and have fun!

Sounds like you had a good time with the little ones...you are a great
big sister, you know that? Does anyone ever tell you that? I think you
are a super big sis. I'm glad that you are there to help Daddy out when
he needs it, and to give Balen someone to play with and be friends with.


How is the weather for you these days? Remember last time I asked you
and you said that it was really hot? Well, I think that you don't know
what hot really feels like, because every day it's well over one hundred
degrees here. And at night, it's usually in the eighties. It doesn't
even get cool anymore, only warm and hot. Warm and hot. Never cool. I
hope that the weather at home is cool for at least a couple of nights
when I first get home, just so I can feel refreshed. I sure am glad
that we have air conditioning!!! We'd get almost no work done if we
didn't have that, because everyone would be too hot and too tired to do
anything!

I will talk to you tonight for me, after church for you. Of course, by
the time you read this we'll have already spoken...

I love you little girl! I hope that you have a wonderful Sunday and
that your last couple weeks of school are marvelous! Just think - soon
you'll be done with 2nd grade and ready for 3rd! You are getting so
big! You need to stop growing up so fast!!!

Love,
Mommy
