The Last 24 Hours!

This is what I wrote...

My Sweetheart Abby is going to Jr. High!She is AMAZING!She rises above and beyond what any mom could ask for.This summer I went to work to help out...Dad went back to school for his masters.She spent her summer...willingly... taking care of her younger brother and sister.Not to mention keeping the house straight, helping them with the summer chores and workbooks, reading them stories, walked them to and from the library and summer movies.She is a doll and a the best friend.She went to girls camp this summer and we all missed her! Nieca I cry every year when I drop them off at school...It is soooooooooo hard to let them grow up. "Let them be little!" After putting her on the bus and waving good bye, we came home and found little notes on all of our pillows. She left them for us with words of luv and kisses!She started her own business to pay for her dance camp and other activities this summer...Abbys Attic. She sells hair flower clips and bows. She made over $500.00, and that was after paying for her supplies. She is working on a girls apron pattern for fall.She loves life and she brings sunshine in to anyone's life just being near her.I am so fortunate to have been blessed to be HER mother!Please grant her this special time to begin this new chapter in her life...SHE DE"SERVE"S IT

Can I say that I am exhausted! I think I was more nervous for ABBY THAN SHE WAS! I had no idea what they had planned for her hair..but I was so pleased with the decisions they made and how brilliant Matthew and Dallan were. They were so fun and so good with Ab! They talked with her and laughed with her and really spent time with her.... 2 HOURS! She had the best time.

I can not tell you how much today meant for me. Abby has been incredible this summer and this was a real reward for her. She deserved every bit of it. Also I got to meet my favorite girls. On the way home Dallin commented on how it seemed like they were our best friends...well we watch them most days and we spend that time together me and the kids...we do the crafted, the cooking and talk about the things they do...They are our friend sand they were so nice to us and said the nicest things to Abby...As we left they even hollered out to us that I should come and guest host...we shall see...after all I have a lot of spare time...I could swing it.
