A Letter to my Mom
Dear Mom,
Yesterday I tried to cut Finn and Lucy's hair (it's only my second time cutting Finn's hair). It turned out okay, but it needs a grandmother's touch.
Do you think when you come in a few weeks that you can trim out the uneven patches?
Lucy's needs a little help too. I'm not sure whether buzzing the mullet off the back and leaving the top alone was such a good idea.
And, could you tell me what you think about the frame on this picture? I think it needs to be painted, but I'm not sure what color. (I know you had this framed for me and I LOVE it, I just think the frame doesn't jive with this room very well).
And, remember how you so skillfully pruned my yard last year? Could you work your magic again?
And, could you tell me whether I should paint this door or not? I think it needs to be white like all the other doors in the house.(Maybe we could paint it together?)
See this desperate face? I know we're going to have alot of fun together.
I just CAN'T WAIT for you to get here. There's so much to do and say and show you, and so little time!
I love you,
Sarah
P.S. Finn and Lucy and Travis are excited for you to come too!

how lucky you are!! Getting to hang out with your mom and welcome a new little baby into your life. Enjoy all the wonderful moments. I'm jealous!
Mom visits are the best. Well, I guess they can only be beat when Dad gets to come too. Have a great time with your Mom!
That's a cute picture of YOU at the end, Sarah.
I have that same picture of Christ in my house. We have it in a plain black frame hanging on our dark red dining room wall.
Deb is amazing. Mother of the years. I love how she always allowed your house to be the children's science experiment. We could sew, do crafts, cook, mess around in the garden. When people ask me if I learned to cook from my mom I say, "No I learned at the Foxes." We always had free reign to do and make whatever.
When did you get 2 boys? And whats the seconds name again? Luise?
I think it's time for you to have this baby. Did you know the nesting instinct can be fatal in some cases? If we don't get you delivered soon, you may do something drastic (and I'm talkin' worse than buzz-cutting Lucy's head or painting perfectly good doors). See ya soon.
And what is with the little ones and all the cuts and bruises. They look like afgan refuges.
