Merry Christmas My lil one . You have been such a trooper the last few days, going from onr house to the next . getting gifts to just be packed up again in 20 min to move to the next house....

Santa ( the spirit of Christmas) came late Christmas eve as you laid cuddled in bed with Grammy, we left him cookies , an orange, and beer. I believe all three were enjoyed :) and for you He left , a scooter. a DSi game thing with games, a barbie, toy story 1-3 and a mr potato head(classic) treats and one of the things you asked for over and over again.....ring-a-ding-ding By Frank Santra!!!! all you ever told any one you wanted. ( It made you supper happy, we listened to it all day!) than we went to Grammy house where received a small singer thing, and mama got some smell good stuff.
we also together got a video of Papa on it..... Perfect.... and the list goes on and on.

Threw all that and dinner at Eastern Winds u were an angel! you ate good food with your smacks and had a smile for every one!!!

Good Night Lil' Lu-Lu

I hope it is the same for you

When I first meet your Papa I just knew some where deep down that he was someone special our first date I was gunna be tough and drive my self. BUT, as you will learn as you get older Mommy will avoid driving in snow at all cost, It snowed hard the day of our first date so i let him come and pick me up! what a sweat guy.

Oh Lu-Lu your Papa was the best man I ever met. I can still see the smile on his face when he came to get me! It was a fun date, lots of laughs and good talks! I loved your Papa right away. I was so scared to be in love, I was so scared to get hurt. Im so glad I opened my heart to Him. It was a love that could never be duplicated!!

AND

I got you... the thought of seeing what you will learn every day is inspiration to get up every morning. I love you, we have a lot of growing to do together! I just always want you to know that I love you!!

someone said something... how true it is

From some one who loves you very much Lil' Lu-Lu

"I tell you , I Love being around her and watching her grow. But I cant look her in the eyes without getting a lump in my throat. I see so much of Pete in her and it makes me feel so close to him being close to her. I miss him so much!!!"

The person who wrote this always loved your Papa for who he was, and he love you for who you are. You may not have Papa here with you telling you what to do or cleaning off your tears when you get hurt, But you have lots of people who love you...NEVER FORGET THAT!!!!

wanted to write a little about us...

The day you were born your Papa and I were ready to see you but scared to death that we were not ready to be parents... After a long hard couple of days ( yes I said DAYS) you were in my arms! one of the first things I said was "She is perfect ... she looks like you hun, She has your eyes" )I was talking to your Papa)

You do have his eyes, his smile, and is bursting at the seams personality. Sometimes when I am feeling the most down and the most blue you will give me a look or say something that will make my heart smile just like your Papa did!

I love you Lil' Lu-Lu!!!! Keep it up, keep on growing and becoming someone who will make the world shine!!

you make me smile

Mama mama MAMA ......
What...
MAMA.... Here.....(hands me her Zuzu pet)

Mama.....MAma......MAMA......

WE DID IT , WE DID IT!!!

Of we went into the sun set with only the hope of fun... and we did it we had fun. It was hot and muggy and felt like we were walking threw soup the whole time but we did it!!




I wish that we had a personal photographer with us at every turn and at every moment of this adventure. the smile in your eves started from the moment you saw Kynan and didn't end until you feel asleep once we were on the ground in UT.

You were transformed into a princess... dress, hair, nails and all.


While we we on our way to meet up with a pirate.(Kynan). we saw our first Princess of the day. (other than you! You were the fairest of them all) You walked regally down the side walk when out of no where you saw her... Snow White so fair and smiling in the Florida summer. and you smiled from ear to ear.... and I knew we were going to have a magical trip!!

bags are packed

bags are packed , Im ready to go Im standing here
out side your door
I hate to wake you up to say good bye.....
cuz I'm leaving , on a jet plane
don't know when I'll be back again....

Wow it feels good to get that out of my head..

Here we go Lil' Lu-Lu. out on and adventure to the other part of the country, they have alligators and sea lice (eeewwww thank you travel channel), they have a HUGE mouse that every one loves, and princess's coming out of their ears!!! and we are of to see them. all of them!!! heaven only knows if you will remember this trip, their will be enuf pictures (I'm sure we will have enuf pictures to line your walls, all of them. ) but I hope you truly , in your heart remember this time and hold it in your heart the way I know I will!!


Love you Lil' Lu-Lu

so much to say

Lil' lu-lu you have so much to say you even in your sleep....

you talk about puppies and ice cream, BUT most of all you talk about Papa...

A number of times in the middle of the night I here you say " Love You PaPa" and it will shock me in to total alertness...

Do you see him, does he tell you stories of Heven on the moon, stories of your Grandpa Jerry of Great Grandpa Loren , or maybe your Uncle Mike and Aunt Cheryl.

Some day I hope you remember these dreams I hear you have seemingly to your self. so many times I wish that I could hear the other side of the conversation

My Lil' Lu-Lu

I love you!!

long time no see

She came out of right field , we talk some times and others we just know that we will be there for for each other at a moments notice.

Pete and i surprised her a few years ago showing up at her play and she was one of the fist to feel Lil' Lu-Lu move when she was bean sized......

My Jess, My Cheshire smile friend. You love on my Lu-Lu like she is your family. You hug me when I'm sad and smile with me when I smile. We have held each others hair (oh yea I went there) I have watched you "levitate".(who could have forgotten that LOL) and tried to kick each others boyfriends ass'. (still wish you would have let me)

Pete and I ran out ASAP to see your Movie and we both cheered when we saw you use your craft on the big screen!! yea to you my friend!

Im so happy to have the chance to hang with you this weekend!! Love MUAH

today and everyday

Today I looked at my Lil' Lu-Lu and could not believe how she has grown. no longer is she my baby girl she is my lil' Lady. All girl, all the time!! it just makes me smile to See that she is growing and learning every day. some days she is an angel and others she it taking toys away from her Cuz' (sorry about that Hollie) but no matter how her day goes she is getting bigger and stronger. She knows her mind , what she wants and doesn't want.

Lil' Lu-Lu you are my girl and No matter how big you get, you can always be my baby!!
