This Friday we celebrated Abigail's 6
th birthday. Abigail invited her 11 "best friends" and we had a wet and wild, slip and slide birthday. We had a water balloon fight, water games, and our own homemade slip and slide. The girls all had a great time. After the girls left, we went to
Chuckie Cheese for Abigail's birthday dinner.
It is hard for me to believe that my youngest child is six tomorrow. She is such a joy to all of us. We love her hugs and kisses and listening to all her imaginary friend conversations. She loves to play games - especially Slap Jack and Old Maid. She also becomes amazingly "very hungry" when she realizes that I have gum in my purse. We love the words that she comes up with - did you know that there was a disciple named
Jankey? That toilet paper around our house is called taper
powels? That she wears a " soccer costume" rather than a soccer uniform? She has a zoo of animals at the end of her bed but Rosie Bear is still the favorite of all. We love you Abigail! Happy Birthday!
Do you think she was having fun???
Watch out!

Abigail is doing very well this year in school. The other morning after she finished her math test, I was looking over the paper and telling her she did a good job. She looked up at me with a puzzled look and asked if I was going to send the paper off to be checked by someone. After I recovered from the fact that she wasn't sure that I could accurately grade her paper, I asked her "who would I send the paper to?" Without a single hesitation she replied "to the President of the United States." The joy of being young - what else would keep President Bush so busy!
Rachel and Elizabeth are on the same soccer team this year - the Red Hots! They had their first game of the season today. Rebekah and Abigail's games were cancelled due to water problems on some of the fields. We are looking forward to another busy soccer season.
