Dear Addilyn,
Today we......
clod hopped in the mud during the rain....
took a bath...
watched Cinderella....
ate at Chick Fila and you played on the "playground"...
bought groceries at Kroger....
you picked out an "i pop" (sucker) and a gold fish carrier...
I served at our neighbor's funeral....
watched Cinderella again...
visited Grandma Teen's and you ate Oreo cookies....
took another bath....
played with cupcakes at the kitchen table....
played Hay Day on the Ipad....
you fell asleep while I "wok wok" you....
Now your asleep in Momma's bed and I'm about to join you....
Love you,
Momma

Grandma Teen & Sewing Buttons
Dear Addilyn,
Saturday night I was getting our church clothes ready and picked out your yellow and pink pig smocked dress. But, a button was missing so I called Grandma Teen. Grandma Teen has hundreds of buttons, needles, and thread. (because she never throws away anything) You momma didn't have anything to sew with.....nothing. I can always call Grandma Teen and she will have whatever I need....sugar, eggs, bacon, Vicks rub, stamps, and needles and thread. One time, when I was dating your Daddy, I wanted to wear this button up black shirt. A button was missing so I went to Grandma's and sewed it up. Your Papa Bud was still alive then. Here it is 6 years later....maybe I should purchase some needle and thread alreayd. Anyways, when I got home and started threading the needle your Daddy said I was doing it wrong so he took over. He sat on your bed and sewed your little smocked dress up for church.....he's a sweet Daddy!! The reason I wanted to post this is to remember 2 things.
1. There is a reason Grandma Teen has kept all those Cool Whip tubs full of buttons and thread...someday, someone may need them.
2. When you were 3 yrs old your Daddy was sitting on the edge of your bed sewing a button onto your smocked dress.
Sweet memories!!
Love you, Momma
