Run for Independence
Amy participated in her second running event today. It was the "Run for Independence" 5K and 1 mile walk. Amy and I walked both. Don flew around the course in 21:48. This race benefits Independence Middle School, and is a fun little community event. Don (Haygood P.T.) has sponsored this race every year forever.
After the race we went to Village Inn for breakfast with the HPT family, and Tio Ben (also a former patient). Amy giggled, drooled and cackled like crazy for her new best friend, Jen.

Cute picture of Amy with the number. I was waiting for new pictures. It's probely hard because you are back to work.

Aunt Janet your room sounds cool too! I think I'd like your bed spread alot. Oh and Gramma Goldie or Aunt Janets mom ( I'ts up to you what you want to be called) anyway, thanks for saying you would have liked my room! And if you want to add the stuffed animals at my dads house and at my grandparents house, I have a ton!
Everybody says I'm to big for the animals but I don't care. My mom says she wont let me get anything else for my room unless I give some away, but I like it the way it is , and I'm not givin any away. I talk to them, sleep with them, study for hard tests with them, and pretend there real.
Aunt Janet and Your mom do you thing I'm to big for them? Well I will be a teenager in 19 months. And everybody says I'm mature for my age and that sometimes when I talk That the way I put my words is adultish. And how when I write stories I write like a adult.

Alicia,
Thanks for taking the time to write to me and my mommy you sweetie. Are you counting the days until you are a teenager? I don't know if you are too big for them, it will be interesting to see what Grandma Goldie says. She has a lot more experience in these matters. The one thing I can say for sure, is your mommy is ALWAYS right.
Love ya,
Janet
You are very mature for your age, and your stories are very complex.
Dear Alicia,
I agree with Janet that you do have to listen to your parents, but there is no harm in your trying to convince your mother that you love them and would like to save them, let's say for your children when you get married and have a family.
However, I am sure there are some poor or sick children that would love to have them if you do have to give them up. That would be a very generous thing to do and you would always remember having done that.
You do sound very sweet, caring and thoughtful. Very good for a girl your age. Keep it up, it will mean a lot to you and those you come in contact with the rest of your life.
Janet, I also love that you think mommies are ALWAYS right.
Love, Grandma Goldie

Thanks for writing back to me. I liked the things you had to say. I know that moms are always right, but I already gave alot away over the years, and I decided that over the summer I'm going to have a garage sale of all the the things that I'm to old for. But I wont give my Benie Babies away (Because I collect them) And 5 of my stuffed animals. Right now, this very minute, I'm talkin on the phone to Karli. She says Hi.
Love Alicia
Go 204! I love you Amy!
Alicia
Karli,
Where did it snow? Amy turned 17 months old on 5/21/06, and I want to tell her where it snowed!!! We do have dance recitals, here where I live in Virginia Beach. Was it your first dance recital? Was it ballet, jazz, tap or break dancing? What did you wear for your recital?
Alicia,
I think I'll be posting on the weekends
Karin,
I take the vitamin called yoga. I think it is the elixir for energy, relaxation, flexibility and strength. I'm hooked.
Love to all crazy enough to be reading this blog,
Janet
