Maggie is one lucky girl because not only does she have the Tubby Torpedo and us to love on her, but she also has ten magnificent grandparents that absolutely adore her. I kept doing the math in my head because ten seems like such a large number, but in this case I think it is just perfect.
SIX GREAT GRANDPARENTS:
Grandmother
Great Grandma & Grandpa Rhone
Great Grandpa Elvrum

FOUR GRANDPARENTS:
Nana Miller
Grandpa Miller
Grammy
Grampy
Dear Papa,
I really miss you. Yesterday I went to play with Thomas and we got to swim in his pool. It was so much fun! Today I got to to a huge garage sale with Mama and Grammy. They bought me more books and I already tried to eat one, it didn’t taste too good. We stopped and saw Great Granny Midge on our way home!
Also, Nana came over and she brought Great Grandpa and Grandma Rhone. You’ll never, ever believe it, but I laughed so hard in Nana’s arms! She’s a funny lady. After they left Grammy and Mama put me in the bath outside and I laughed some more. I kept hearing them laugh too, so it must have been really funny to see me, a naked baby, in the tub.
After I got to splash in the tub and I ate I put on my resort wear and Mama put me back in the empty tub to sleep. I’m was so tired from all that laughing I did.
I’ve attached a couple pictures, in case you are wondering if I’ve grown in the last 24 hours – I have.
I really miss you, Papa. I hope you have fun on your hike, but when you get back can we feed the fish together and will you play a game with me. There are certain things you do that Mama just can’t, even though she tries. Plus, you need to hear me laugh because Mama says that it’ll make you laugh too!
Love,
Lil M
