A woman is like a TEA BAG - you never know how strong she is until she gets into HOT WATER. - Eleanor Roosevelt

For our Big Tex Jim ...

Dearest Jim,

You've missed a lot these last two weeks. We thought you might like to see what we've been up to since you've been gone...

We've eaten our eggs...



And a heathy dinner of mud-pie hotdogs...



We went to Sand Gnats Day Camp ...



Where we got very hot and sweaty...



Thank goodness Mommy knows how to make icy cold drinks ...



And something tasty to eat...



We started 2nd Grade with a BANG...



And we got excited about our first day of 4 Year Old Preschool...



And Mommy had to hold back the tears, because we were just too excited...



We completed our first preschool assignment - "Decorate Your House..."





And we've been BIG HELPERS to Mom...



We got our football gear and now we're ready...



All in all, I think we've been pretty brave...



And we've tried to walk the line - just like you do...



But sometimes we've needed some help along the way...



Other times we were just worn out ...



And played guitar to ease the pain of missing you...



So now we sit patiently and wait...



And we stare longingly out the window, waiting for you to come home...



We miss you Dad! Come home soon!
Love, Candace, Owen & Miles
