So, we hope you are not thinking, "out of sight, out of mind" about us because it has been the opposite for our family, and as you have been out of our sight you have been constantly on our minds.
As we have been out of sight we have learned that with a new location there comes new surprises. Here are a few that we have learned from:
1. If you find yourself running through the country side and you come across a live, stinky skunk, just two feet away, turn around and run back to where you came from because chances are he will turn and run back to where he came from too. At least that's what happened to me the first time I ran into the skunk.
2. Be careful playing soccer with your friends because you just might end up giving one a minor concussion.
3. If you happen to jog through a swarm of nasty gnats, it is best to wear a hat and sunglasses or else one or two will probably fly straight into your eye. The sting from that tiny, little bug will leave you crying like a baby, and redness that will last at least 24 hours, and make everyone around you to wonder whether you made up some fanciful story to cover up your contagious case of pink eye.
4. Stomach bugs like to attack little girls at midnight and then keep them puking until the sun comes up just so she will not get a wink of sleep; and neither will her parents.
Lastly we have found that in a new location, you need friends. We know we need you, so thank you for being there! Please continue to remember us as we remember you daily.
Still can't believe this girl is now one more year older! Today, after being 4 years old for less than a week she said, " I just can't wait to be 5 years old." Woah girl slow down!
