But this note was not written as a keepsake or a reminder, it was written to have the same note as everyone else. The real note is not that thing you can show off, even if that's dang sweet, the real note is in mommies' and kiddos' hearts, and you write this note every day. With all your love. And your daughter knows it <3<br />Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07052983331122916155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319454352626199680.post-65438137377410601052013-09-28T02:56:34.421-06:002013-09-28T02:56:34.421-06:00AW! That kid of yours is resourceful! Yes, this ...AW! That kid of yours is resourceful! Yes, this tugs on the heartstrings, but it also tells me she is SMART...and she knows she's writing the truth, she's just your secretary, right?! She sees how busy you are.<br /><br />That, or you need to arrange for some sky-writing asap.

Oh dear. If you can ever get Sarah to commit to a day, I'll meet you guys! Pretty much any night but Tuesdays.<br /><br />Marn, I forgot Goldie had mailed a special letter! Luckily, I think she may have forgotten too . . . had she remembered, I'm quite certain I would have been hearing, "Has the mail come yet???" EVERY DAY. And, I haven't been hearing that. I think we are safe. If it comes now it will be a bonus, unexpected surprise. <br /><br />And those awesome hats are actually giant Styrofoam wigs -- we paused to try them out in the Halloween section at Target.

Goldie wrote a cute letter to Tori, and Tori promptly wrote a response...but some of it was written with a paintbrush and was a little sloppy...so I thought maybe I'd have her redo it. And then it got hidden under lots of paper.....Tell Goldie I'm sorry, and will mail it soon!<br /><br />And what are those crazy hats, we'd like to know.Marniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15681246979975131891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1319454352626199680.post-32062170447195492152013-09-26T11:32:29.607-06:002013-09-26T11:32:29.607-06:00Oh Nancy, how life is so busy, and I just have mis...Oh Nancy, how life is so busy, and I just have missed catching up with you on your blog!
