A Month of Firsts

What an exciting month for Abbie.First, five years ago on September 1, we added a beautiful baby girl to our little family. Abbie Marie has always had a happy temperment and kind heart. She is such a good big sister to Josh and Kelly and my little helper. She is always willing to do whatever is asked of her and tries her hardest to do what's right. She continues to be a bright spot in our lives who will accomplish whatever she sets her mind to!














The day after Abbie's birthday, she had her first dance class. She and her little friend Madi are in a creative dance class which she absolutely loves! She asks everyday if she has dance and just beams when she comes out of her class every week.














The biggest moment (for me anyways) was Abbie's first day of school! I had a harder time than she did. I cried the night before and while she did get a few tears in her eyes when we left, that was it. She came out of her first day excited to go back. Her teacher is due to deliver her second baby in just a few weeks, so I am hoping having a substitute doesn't change the way she feels. My baby is growing up!

Jill -- I don't have an e-mail for you, so I hope you don't mind me writing to you on here. (And I hope you get this!) My mom told me today about your Grandma and I just wanted to let you know I was thinking of you & I am sorry to hear about her passing. My mom was her visiting teacher, and she regularly talked about the neat visits they had with her. I know I met her a few times and she was such a sweet and neat lady. Anyway, just wanted to let you know you guys are in my thoughts & prayers during this hard time.
