ABC 123

Being a toddler is all about action & Skyler is full of action when it comes to her many books. The words and pictures have really encouraged her excitement for books. We read several times a day and I try to keep things lively and engaging.

Just recently, the Princess received a birthday gift from our dear friends in Jacksonville, Ron & Debi VanderBaan. Skyler takes delight in opening gifts and she was so happy to get The Big Red Book of Beginner Books. It contains 6 stories and offers an exciting blend of words and pictures.

Thank you so much, Ron & Debi, for keeping our Lady Bug in your thoughts and remembering her on her birthday! We have been enjoying the book daily! Her foundation for independent reading is definitely being formed. Sky is learning so many new words and is also able to count, so I know the books are a huge help!

Speaking of numbers, the Fourth of July is quickly approaching and the Princess will certainly be ready for all the fun festivities, especially after receiving this package from Auntie Nicola & Uncle Bogie.

I can't wait to dress her up in this Patriotic outfit when we go Downtown to the city's annual Red, White & Kaboom Independence Celebration.

She also got 2 pair of cute socks & just had to show Laney....

Thank you, Nicola & Bogie. I'm sure Skyler will dazzle the crowd and be just as breathtaking as the fireworks!

I know I've said this before, but we are truly blessed and very thankful to have such caring & wonderful friends and also an amazing family. We love you all!
