Dear Little Big Boss,
It’s fall again already! We just got back from a trip to Puerto Rico with the Bustamante’s and had a wonderful time. I’ll tell you all about it, but 1st, other items: you are enjoying your new classroom still and got to go on your 1st field trip on the big school bus last Friday. Grandmother went with you to the cornmaze and you seemed to really enjoy that. Mom & Dad are playing soccer and you just play during the games. I bought you 9 costumes for $16 at the Harless’s thrift shop and you’ve been dressing as a princess a lot then decided you want to be Jesse from Toy Story after seeing that movie. Friday night we played Wizard of Oz for you and you spent the rest of the weekend in your Dorothy costume from last year. We went to Festival of Jack O Lanterns at CNC this weekend and saw many friends. You rode a full-sized horse for the 1st time. You have really enjoyed getting into the spirit of Halloween, helping me decorate and pointing out witches and ghosts.
So, PR was fabulous and you did great traveling as always despite your biggest meltdown ever going through security in the Atlanta airport. Won’t forget that! You loved all the creatures in the islands and enjoyed swimming and playing in the surf with Deacon and Amelia so much. You got to watch some new movies; you were so concerned about the orphans on Annie but loved the music. When Daddy asked if you knew who Fred Flinstone was & was trying to explain the cartoon, you go: “He makes fruity pebbles though right?” You especially enjoyed watching the birds in cages at el conquistador resort and following the hen and her chics around Palomino Island. In the rainforest, you sang the entire hike in – it was lovely… Then we found out that I have a baby in my belly during our time there and that was just the icing on the cake. You are going to be a big sister! You keep insisting it better be a little sister and almost go into tears when we talk about a brother being possible. You got to wear a shirt that said “I’m the Big Sister” to tell grandmother about it. So fun and exciting! We don’t have a due date or anything yet but think sometime in June. You are going to be the best Big Sis!
