We heard a rumor that life moves a little slower in the South. Once upon a time, a man from some big city called "Chicago" told Mommy that when Armageddon comes he'd want to be in Kentucky because things take a lot longer to get to Kentucky. RUDE! Mommy hitched up her horse and rode straight away on her wagon when he said that. The nerve of some city folks!
We are finding that time is just flying by now that we're in the "not really the real" South (according to Uncle Dan who yes, we concur geographically is about as far South as one can be but still, South Carolina is further South than Kentucky and we are Southerners, y'all!) We have even adopted some Southern ways! For instance, I like to say, "Mmmm, MM! I love me some peaches!" and Anna likes to say, "Dammit!" for no real reason at all except to get Mommy stared at in public.
Please stay with us while we get used to our new life. Mommy is still getting used to being at home with us and not going to work (she *thought* she was getting some kind of break?!?), Daddy is getting used to his new job, we are getting used to our new city, a lot more together-ness than we're used to - you know! It's been a big summer. One we won't soon forget.
Grampa, we are so sorry we didn't post you a birthday blog but it's coming! We didn't forget - HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY! And Aunt Tracey, we are pretty sure we owe you one, too. We're sorry, Mommy is sorry - we love you and miss you and we'll get it up in the next couple days.
Love, Love, Love,
Lilly, Anna and Jack
