Dear Children, I think you are all pretty much loving summer so far. No one waking you up or making you go to bed early. And running wild and free..or playing all you want to. Dear Family, it seems like it has been so long since I've come to visit. You love me more that way I think. It is just what I was needing, to spend some time with you. Dear Cousins, well, my kids cousins. My nieces and nephews. You guys are having a blast together. You missed each other. I love how much fun you have together and how much you love each other. I admit it makes my heart happy when I have a car full of my family. Good thing I drive a beast so I can cram so many of you in:) Dear Food, I have been trying to eat as much good food as I can while I am here. That means one meal a day mostly Ha. I miss all of my favorite places to eat with my favorite people. Dear Swimming, I'd say when there are this many kids around, a pool is a life saver. An every day kind of thing. They have to be drained of all crazy energy so they will just be a normal level of crazy. And this white girl could use some sun. Dear Ma+Pa, I missed you. Nothing like going to a movie with the old folks in the middle of the night. You guys don't act very old. Dear Becca, I didn't get to hear how your birthday went! I hope you are having the best Birthday. Another teenager in the house. Happy Birthday Pretty Girl! Dear Will, I enjoyed our time at the temple this week. I hope you are enjoying your weekend. Dear Self, I am so grateful that I know where to find peace. I am so grateful I have learned how, the whole process of getting myself there. It isn't easy. And just when you think you have made it, you realize you haven't. And you start all over again.
