Dear Rob,
It is almost July, another month closer to you being home. It might even be our last month apart. No worries I am not saying when you will be home.
We had a good day. We straightened up and I went grocery shopping. Although honestly I still have a few groceries on the table waiting to be put away.
We had three calls about kittens today. The first wants the kitten but says her husband does not want another pet. Another lady called and said she wants the female orange for sure but then the person living with her does not. She will call me tomorrow. Another couple called and wanted to meet me quickly. They took Bob, did not really even talk to us. It felt really weird. I was okay getting rid of the kittens but I guess if I am honest I will tell you I did not want to give away Bob because he has issues and well he is cute. So both of our boys are gone now. Now we are working on the girls. I will say last night I was so sad, momma cat was looking out the back door and would not move. I wonder if she was looking for her baby.
I love you babe and cannot wait to hear when you will be home. Have a wonderful day and know that we are praying for you.
I love you babe,
Pamela PETRIE

Dear Rob,
I had so much to tell you but I guess I better explain why all of our children are in tears. This evening I had three e-mails about the kittens and the first person I called was ready to meet me. The short story is Butter is spending his first night with his new family. They seemed beyond nice and had two little boys in the car to play with them. I am kind of hoping they call back to take Bob. The wife seemed interested. It is sad because the other little orange one is laying in the middle of the floor right now all by herself. It is so sad. The kids are in bed but I can hear all four of them. They are pretty upset. I hope we can get rid of the other three quickly. I think this is hard on them and I do not want them to be stretched out.
We had a great day. The kids spent a big part of the day playing outside. They started in bathing suits and ended up in pajamas. This evening they actually were out there in winter coats. I still do not understand it. They were hiding under the table and under a tree. I kept reminding them they needed to either play or come in.
Can I tell you how excited I have been all day. Thinking about block leave and all the time we will have together. I can’t wait to have time alone with you. I am praying it works out that we get a couple of nights alone. Can you imagine talking with no interruptions, kissing without anyone saying Oh! Taking a walk without pushing a stroller. I just need you to do me one favor, if I say I will sleep in a camper and do all that manly stuff will you PLEASE promise me there will be no licking of plates? That is all I ask, well that and maybe you take me to town for a decent meal at least one night.
Okay, I am going to go love on your babies and explain to them again while we cannot keep these kittens.
I love you babe,

Dear Rob,
What a wonderful, amazing, relaxing day. We did nothing. Well maybe a little something but not much. I picked up pictures from Wal mart and then took posters of the kittens to the vet and 3 other places to be hung. I called the pound to ask for suggestions on where to hang them and they told me they only hold kittens for TWO days before they decide what to do with them. The vet said they gas them not once but sometimes twice. I was in tears. What will I do if I do not find homes? I am going to put them on Craigslist’s and pet finder.
We really relaxed today and just watched the kittens and played. Hope has told me for two days that she has a head ache. This afternoon she told me she told me her legs hurt. By this evening she was laying in our bed with a 100.8 fever. I am hoping she will wake up happy in the morning.
Oh, I made a yummy dinner. We had left over steak and chicken. Then I took leftover homemade fries and warmed them up by frying them in a skillet (with a teaspoon of olive oil). They were wonderful.
I love you so much and love that we are making plans for when you come home. I can’t wait to set and talk to you
I love you babe,

Dear Rob,
I love you and can’t believe we talked for almost a hour today. WOW almost an entire hour. I thought we had my e-mail working but it will not let me send. I did get the 900 messages deleted. Thank you. I am counting the days until you are home and just look at my laptop and it obeys.
We have had a wonderful relaxing day. We dropped mom off and came home and did NOTHING, a big fat NOTHING. The house is a wreck and I do not mind. We had leftovers for lunch and dinner. I even drove by Krispy Kreme without stopping.
Grace cried when we left my mom and cried a couple of times today. Hope did not want mom to leave. Honestly she did hair detail all week so I would love it if she stayed around.
Michael’s leg looks better. He has not been picking at it today and that helps.
Can you believe we are almost down to counting days instead of months? I cannot believe it. The girls are planning the biggest party. Be glad they do not have endless cash or the whole world would be here. Hope reminded me today that we have to bring you a Diet Pepsi when we pick you up.
I am sorry about the camel pictures yesterday. I thought it was funny. I will post real zoo pictures in the next couple of days. Do you even see camels where you are now?
I would love to talk but it is Sunday night and you know what that means. No really I am just ready for bed. I am going to work on getting caught up on pictures this week on the blog.

Dear Rob,
I love you babe and missed you today. We went back to the Aloha zoo this morning and had a great time. I took a bunch of pictures but knew there was one thing you would want to see. I know that you have not seen this animal in a very long time and how much you love these animals.
and because I know you miss them I am sending another picture
and another.
Sorry, I just had to. We had a good time. It was hot but the kids loved it. The baby bear and lion are getting so big. They said the person helping with there new buildings is not available to finish it and if they do not get help in the next month to fix it then they will have to get rid of them.
We came home and made steak and home made fries for dinner. I made another batch of no bake cookies for mom to take home with her but we have ate half of them.
I wish you could see these kittens and how wild they get as soon as the kids go to bed. It is almost majical to watch.
Overall we had a good day, no popcorn kernals in the ear, no mouse in the garage and lunch at KFC.
I love you babe. I will be around after about 10am in the morning. Mom has to be there at 9:30 in the morning. I have to do a head count and make sure all the kittens are here when she gets in the van. I am worried she will sneak one in her bag.

Dear Rob,
I love you and am so sorry you had a bad day. I wish you were with me today when I went to the doctor and found out I had a eye infection in my good eye. Or when the cat attacked the dog several times and sent him crying in the corner. Or when Michael put a popcorn kernel in Faith’s ear and told her she would be able to grow corn. Only it got stuck in there and my mom had to dig it out with a dental pick. Or when I made spaghetti sauce and let it burn to the bottom of the pan. Or when I ran into the wall after putting the ointment into my eye.
We have not done anything all day. I tried to put a ice pack on my eye but then the cat and dog started fighting and I had to stop. I tried again but then Grace got stuck outside by herself and freaked out.
I love you so much and wish we had each other today. I wish I could just have you hug me today. I wish I could fall asleep tonight in your arms. I wish you were here because you would not have let the spaghetti sauce burn. I would not feel bad about taking a nap if you were home. You would be able to tell me how to deal with the cat dog issue today.
I wish you were here today when Grace used a whole bottle of lotion on our legs. I wish you were here to deal with the mouse I found in the garage today. I swear I feel like I am about to go nuts between seeing flees and now a mouse and then the toilet not flushing properly. I feel like I cannot keep a clean house or something.
I think we are going to the zoo tomorrow but it really depends upon how my face feels. Do you need a laugh? Hope just came in and asked if she could take a bath and I said no. then she starts crying that her butt is dirty. I thought she was going to show me. Mom was dying when she plopped her foot up on my leg and said look my foot is really dirty. Either she needs to go back to speech or I need my hearing tested. What do you think?
I love you babe, I can’t wait to have you home with us.

Dear Rob,
Hello babe, I hope your day went well. We had a good day. I already told you how counseling went. We went to a thrift shop and found a couple of things but not a ton. I took mom to the PX and walked around. Then we went to the post office and got your package mailed out.
I made brats and mac-n-cheese for dinner. I have no bake cookies cooling for later. Mom is determined I have a sinus infection. One of my eyes looks like I was punched. I may actually need to run to the DR tomorrow.
I love you and will be sure and tell you what the DR says if I go. I love you babe,

Dear Rob,
We have had a great day. We went to Fuquay to the thrift shop and got some amazing deals. I got some great deals. I got something for you for our anniversary. All I will say is it will go in the back yard. I know you will be thrilled. Hope found this you horse that is about a foot tall. She spent $15 on the silly thing. Since she never spends her money I was willing to let her spend the money. They have a new store right next door to the big one. It is called little Angels.
We also stopped at the thrift store next to our house. I wish I would have taken more time to look around. They had all clothing for 50 cents a piece. The girls each got a pair of high heels which they lived in the rest of the afternoon.
We came home and relaxed. I got all the laundry put away and the suitcases unloaded. I have a few more things to hang up tonight and then we will be back to normal.
I got dishwasher soap made today. I think I made enough for about a month.
I love you. It has meant the world to me to be able to talk to you recently.
Oh yeah, I paid a stranger to weed eat and mow. He came by and asked if he could clean out the gutters and I said no but I need things weed eat. He was going to trim the bushes but I did not know where our hedge trimmers were and he did not have one. Do we own hedge trimmers?
Michael has counseling in the morning and I have to say I am looking forward to it. He has started picking the last week and it is stressing me. Yesterday when we were in BK a complete stranger came up to us and asked if he had infected mosquito bites. I was glad he did was willing to offer help but upset that it is so obvious. I do not know why but I wanted to explain that he picks and what that means. After counseling I am taking mom to a couple more thrift shops and then coming home.
I wish you could see these kittens. They are wild now. It is like I went away for a week and they grew up and became fun. Now that they are fun it is time to get rid of them. Yesterday I came home and they had pulled the table cloth of the kitchen table which meant they pulled off a brand new candle and broke it.
I love you babe and can not wait to talk to you soon. I love you

Dear Rob,
First I have to tell you that I love you and miss you. It is so hard not being allowed to send you cards. I feel like I am not taking care of you. We had a great time. We woke up and took Michael to the last part of his testing. He said we should have results in about three weeks. We were there for over two hours. I do not know why but I honestly was falling asleep in one of the chairs.
After testing we met a friend for lunch to say good bye before her movers come tomorrow. It was so nice to set and chit chat. Then we headed home and Faith made her birthday cake. I can’t believe she wanted to make her own cake for the second year in a row. This week she even made the frosting. After the cake cooled we headed BACK out. She wanted to go to O’Charley’s for mac-n-cheese. We came back home and she iced her cake.
Thank you so much for sending her your card. She thought it was so cute and the fact that it was not originally a birthday card made her life.
I love you babe and cannot wait to have you home. I love you!

Dear Rob,
We are home safe and sound. What a crazy day. On the way home I got a text from Darcy saying that her husband found a flee in our bedroom. There were none anywhere else. I started freaking out.
I came home and realized I did not take a key with me and we were locked out of the house. We made it in but I am not telling you how. We came in the house and I searched for flees. As soon as I found one we left. I know I am crazy. But it scares me to death. So we went and bought bombs and set them off while we went to the movies. I am so worried about getting flees in the yard. It is so weird since the yard has been treated and so have the cat and dog. I have the blankets in the dryer now.
The kittens have gotten so big over the last week. I can not believe it. I will take pictures tomorow to send you.
Thank you for calling me this morning. I really wanted to come home today and set and write you long letters but after the whole cat thing I am just ready to collapse.
Tomorow morning we will wake up and make Faith's birthday cake and then head out for the final part of Michael's testing. Then we need to run to Sam's. Then the plan is to come home and finish up her cake and relax. She says she wants O'Charley's for dinner.
I love you babe and can not wait to have you home. I know it is killing you to not be here tomorow.

Dear Rob,
We made it to Columbus. I do not think I would have done it if you had not called me this morning. You are going to scream when I tell you this. I have been screaming all day. Okay well not really but I wanted to. I drove all the way to Columbus got checked into our hotel and then your mom called. She was calling me to ask if I wanted to go ahead and go to Aimee's house. Then she told me she was going home tonight. I about lost it with her. I said if you would have called me and told me this I could have saved myself a $100 hotel room bill. She just basically said something came up. I was so beyond ANGRY. Pictures went great. Then we went back to Aimee's for pizza.
The kids were so excited when we got back to the hotel because it has a indoor pool. Then they realized they forgot the bag with the swimsuits. It has been nice because they are just laying around and relaxing. I am about to pull the blinds so it is dark and go to bed early. Then we will leave when we wake up and head back to my moms.
I love you babe and can not wait to talk to you and upload more pictures to you.

Dear Rob,
We are still at the camper but I wanted you to have something here for you when you woke up. My mom's neighbor has goats and the kids have had so much fun playing with them. They told Michael to chase the billy goat. I could not stop laughing. I thought he was going to wipe out because the grass was so wet. The kids are doing good. They are getting tired.
I love you babe,
Pamela PETRIE

Dear Rob,
I will not be around tonight. I am at the campground you grew up going to. I am at the campground we went to in high school. The camp ground we would go with your parents to and then sneak off and smooch.
Speaking of smooching for your viewing pleasure I am showing you the bus stop that we use to walk to. Do you remember what we would do at that bus stop. I know the church looks horrible now. I have been kinda sad driving around looking at things.
I love you babe and wish you were able to be here with me.

Dear Rob,
First I can not believe I almost forgot to write you tonight. It is 11:21pm and I am just walking in the door.
When I have a better signal I will tell you more about our day. We went to church this morning and then went back to your parents to have lunch. I honestly had a great time. I hated leaving them, we talked and talked and talked. And then I met Logie to talk and then went back to her house to talk. I so did not want to leave. I have really enjoyed talking to everyon.
So your mom and I decided tonight that we would go to the camper on Tuesday and come home on Thursday. Then leave for Columbus on Friday. This is going to be crazy busy and I am going to be crazy tired but so worth it. I can not wait to show you pictures and tell you about all the people at church. Yes, I got my butterscotch candy this morning. How he remembers what kind of candy I like is beyond me. I had a peppi for breakfast but think I will go back to a potato melt in the morning.
Did you notice I said I met Logie instead of we. The kids stayed with your mom and dad. Hope asked if she could and then Grace (who was setting in your dads lap) looked up at him and me too. I mean really how could they have said no. The kids had played dress up and were having a great time when I left.
I love you and miss not being able to talk to you or send you real letters or pictures. Maybe I will be able to get somewhere with good wireless this week.
I love you babe,
Pamela PETRIE

Dear Rob,
I wish I was on my laptop so I could send you pictures. I still can not figure out the wireless.
We had a good day. We ended up staying at my mom's house waiting for your mom to call. I finally called her about 5pm and she was asleep. She said she had to walk up a hill for the funeral. I told her we would see her at church. The kids played outside most of the day. They played with the neighboors goats and chickens and then when Oma got off work she took them for rides on the golf cart. They are tired and ready for bed. Did I tell you what I had for breakfast. I had a potato melt from Tudors. YUMMY, I could have eaten ten. I can not wait until the morning to decide if I will have a peppi or another potato melt.
We do not have any plans for tomorow except for church. I hope I can remember the way there. Then we will probably spend the day with your parents. We decided we will probably go to the camper on Tuesday. I can not wait to take pictures.
I love you and can not wait to talk to you again.

Dear Rob,
I love you and miss you and wish we would have been able to talk more in the last couple of days. I am doing so much better today than I have in several days.
We had a great day. Counseling went well. Kim came over for dinner. I forgot to take a picture of the cake I made. It was a chocolate cake with homemade chocolate frosting and then I wrapped it in Kit Kat bars and filled the top with reece pieces.
I think we are packed and ready except for packing for some snacks. The kids are so excited that I do not know if I will be able to get them to sleep.
I had a thought tonight. Do you remember when we use to walk to the bus stop? Do you remember what we use to do waiting at the bus stop? I would love to meet you at the bus stop one day, what do you think?
The kids are doing well. No major meltdowns today. They even told several people today that we need to find homes for the kittens.
I can’t wait to show you pictures of all of the places we use to enjoy together. I love you babe and can’t wait to talk to you.
I have not told the kids when you will be coming home but I will say I am already counting the days. I love you babe.

Dear Rob,
I am sorry I am writing you so late but Lori kept me on the phone and would not let me hang up with her. I miss her so much.
I am so tired. We had a crazy busy day. I got all the bathrooms cleaned. Well the kids got the bathrooms cleaned. We got the house dusted or at least partly. I have not started packing yet. Maybe in the morning I will get more done.
I did get 75 cupcakes made and iced. I made mac-n-cheese for 75 airmen. I will drop it off tomorrow. I can’t wait to make the mac-n-cheese again. I used nacho cheese and it really turned out yummy.
I have so much I want to tell you but I have waited way to late to write. I promise I will do better tomorrow night. For now I need to get in bed because the man to fix the garage door will be here by 8:30 in the morning. Oh, did I tell you that one of the garage doors will not shut.
I love you babe,

Dear Rob,
I love you so much. I mean you are there for me even when you should not be. You accept me for me no matter what that me is.
This evening has been great. I finally came to life about 4pm. Before that I was toast and an emotional basket case. I was able to vacuum the downstairs. Change the sheets in our room and wash all the blankets. I have a few more pieces of laundry to put away tomorrow. I feel so much better now that things look better.
Michael says he feels better today, back to himself. He has had a great attitude today. I have to admit that I am still worried.
I forgot to get a picture of the kittens at the vet today. They each weigh about 1 pound 10 ounces and look great. The vet said the gray one will probably always be pigeon toed. He said there is nothing to worry about. I think this vet bill may have put us in the red in our checking account. I mean I am worried I will not be able to buy anything until pay day because it was so much. They even cut the bill down 25% for me but still WOW it was up there. Okay, so it was only $3. I love this Vet. He said I should make them a litter box using shredded newspaper. So I did and well the picture will show you what they thought of it. Michael did take one outside this afternoon to get Vit D. I kept putting it off but the vet reminded me today that he wants him getting Vit D. He was not thrilled and refused to walk on the grass. I even remembered to charge Grace’s car today. She was thrilled to be driving again.
I love you. I am thinking that our friend will be able to help me fix my laptop tomorrow so I can e-mail again.

Dear Rob,
First let me say everything is okay and WOW. I can now breathe so I will tell you about our evening. Did I say everything is fine?
Michael has been interesting the last couple of days. I do not know what is going on. So this afternoon we were finishing math when Michael started telling me he could not concentrate. Finally I told him to go jump on the trampoline for 5 minutes. A couple of minutes later my phone rang. It was Michael; he was on the trampoline and screaming. I went running out there. He was face down on the trampoline screaming that he could not move. I talked to him for about 10 minutes wondering what to do. I finally decided it was more than anxiety (I do not know why I thought that since he has never had a anxiety attack before). So I called 911. The whole time I am trying to get shoes on the girls and get them outside. Trying to get the cat and dog locked in a room, make sure we are ready to run as soon as they get there. Trying to stay close to Michael as the cat sneaks out and I have to chase her, trying to stay close to Michael as the girls are now crying and worried. Trying to stay close to Michael as I hear sirens and then see a cat and a kitten is outside.
They come in and cut the netting to the trampoline and one gets on with him and cuts off his shirt. They did the whole scrape your foot and his foot did not move. He said he felt it but could not move his foot. Then I heard them say he had good reflexes. Faith got everyone shoes on and locked the doors. Then got everyone buckled in the van. As soon as they got him in the ambulance I went ahead and left because I know I could not follow them. We actually got to the hospital before them. They did a CT scan and said that it was clear. They said he has a closed head injury. She said that he could go home. There are lots of warning signs to watch for a brain bleed but they think he is okay. They said he just jolted his system which is why it hurt to move anything. He walked out of the hospital just fine.
I did ask the nurse if she thought this could have been a anxiety attack and she said NO. He is okay now and in bed. I will check on him every couple of hours throughout the night.
I love you babe, please know we are okay. Everyone handled it better than I would have thought. Roberta came to the house to set with the girls. I took the girls with me to the ER and then Kim picked them up and brought them home. Roberta even folded my laundry while I was gone.
They gave Michael a shirt to wear home. We are home now and everyone is in bed. I love you. I am going to lay down on the couch for a couple of hours.

Dear Rob,
I love you, I miss you more than I can explain. We had a good day. I could not remember when church started so we got there at 8:50 and I am glad because it started at 9. There were not as many people there as I thought there would have been.
We came straight home and relaxed all day. I even took a nap for the second day in a row. Maybe 20 minutes but it felt good.
The biscuits I made yesterday turned out great. I am going to make some more tomorrow to freeze. Only five more days until I go home, I can’t believe it. It seems so weird to go home without you. It is honestly making me kind of sad.
Tonight I was watching you tube soldier songs and Grace climbed up next to me. We set here for a hour listening to music and me singing before she fell asleep. I set here for another 30 minutes just enjoying it. I miss when they just lay there and let you smell them and feel there breathe.
Hope has something to tell you, can you guess what it is?
Everyone is in bed and I think asleep. SHOOT, I just remembered I did not take a picture of the kids today.
I love you babe and hope you are enjoying all these pictures of the kittens.

Dear Rob,
Thank you so much for being my husband. Emotionally I have been really good this week until tonight. I walked outside to look at the baby birds and decided to take a picture of your truck for you. I honestly stood there and touched the back of your truck for a few minutes. I do not know why, kind of silly. I guess I just know how much you love it and that made me feel closer to you.
I had a very busy day today. I made chocolate chip muffins and donut muffins and a cake (which did not turn out as pretty as I would have liked). I also made biscuits to freeze. I got the garage straightened out. The vacuum is working today but I can tell the power button is not working right.
I love you babe and hope your connection is better tomorrow.

Dear Rob,
I have a new friend. It is a boy, he has gray hair and sometimes walks with a limp but I think I am in love. Of all the men in my life he is the first to jump up on the couch to be close to me. All of them jump off things but he will jump up for me. He is the first one to sleep on my chest. I think I am in love but please do not tell anyone. No worries he will not be in my bed tonight. You know how I enjoy sleeping alone.
We had a great day. I missed talking to you and hope I catch you on line tomorrow. We went to Roberta’s to pick up her steam cleaner. I feel like a new person after having adult conversation for a hour. It was wonderful. She sent the girls home with HUGE bucket of my little pony toys. The girls spent the afternoon playing in there room. I actually laid down for about 20 minutes this afternoon. Then when I got up we got the house straightened up. I got the living room and our bedroom vacuumed and now the vacuum will not turn on. Do you have any suggestions? I did get the living room and our bedroom steam cleaned. We will see how it looks in the morning.
I do not have any real plans tomorrow other than make a cake for a friend. Make a grocery list for our trip. I also need to dust but we will see if I get to it. Maybe I will just sew all day.
How was your day today? Did you make it to the gym? What did you have for lunch? Did you receive any mail?
Can I tell you something? This little gray kitten is in my lap and all the other ones are hidden. Can I tell you something else? He has crazy hair that stands up. Oh, and one more thing. I refuse to call him by any name because I do not want to love him. I untapped his legs today, he seems to be doing much better.
I love you babe and can not wait to talk to you.

Dear Rob,
I love you, I do not know what is going on but I hardly have a voice. I think it is because I am beyond tired. I made the mistake of staying up until after midnight and then woke up at 6am. Hope came to our bed at some point. She told me this morning that it was okay because she did not torture me. I do not know what you call kicking me all night.
I got the tires rotated today. I was impressed they got done so quickly. He did say I had a tire that was almost flat. OOPs, I need to pay closer attention.
Guess what? When I was leaving to go shopping I asked Michael if he wanted shorts. He said no and then said “what will you give me if I wear shorts?” I said you get two things; first you will not die of heat exhaustion when we are at the park and second you will not look silly for being the only person in jeans on a 100 degree day. He said okay you can get me a couple of pairs. So I picked him up 2 pairs of shorts and brought them home. He tried them on and they were too small. So we instantly left and took them to exchange them. He tried 38’s and they fell off him. So he tried on 36’s and they fit great. Crazy I know.
I got the girls new tennis shoes today. Can you believe your nine year old little girl is wearing a size 8 woman’s shoe? I could not believe it.
I love you babe and can not wait to talk to you again.

Dear Rob,
Can I just say that I love you? Thank you for loving me for my short comings. Thank you for being there for me when I need you or just want to vent.
We had a great day. How could it not be great when you are on line for more than a minute to talk to me? Michael’s doctor’s appointment went great. She said his blood work looked wonderful. She will see us again in a month. I think I was a little too harsh about her last month because she was very nice to us this time and did not even mind the girls being there. Honest, I think she was impressed that all four kids could be in her office at the same time.
You would have laughed at me this afternoon. We went to Hancock’s to get ribbon and then got lost going to Aldi’s. Am I right that in Germany they only took cash? I asked a strange man in the parking lot if they accepted credit cards. I know I could have just gone in and asked but I did not want to take everyone in if I did not need to. The kids would have stayed there all day putting quarters in the carts. I bought a seedless watermelon and am going to make candied watermelon with part of it.
I stopped at the thrift shop close to the house and found about 10 shirts for Faith and 2 for Hope. Michael bought the battle ship game. He must have beat Faith 10 times tonight; I did not play with him.
We straightened up when we got home and I got the laundry put away. Can I tell you I miss you more on days that laundry needs put away?
We are not going anywhere tomorrow and hope to get school done early so we can work on some projects done. I need to make sure we are getting ready for vacation soon. Anything special I can get for you when we are gone.
Okay, I have to admit what I did today. I was trying to find the post office to mail your box and I bet you can guess what happened. First, it sent me into a trailer park. Then I went in the same circle twice, that post office must have been invisible. So I gave up and thought I would go to the one close to our house. t I got turned around on the highway and ended up coming almost to our house. The kids thought I was nuts.
Guess what is scratching my feet right now? Your right, the kittens are. They have been in the livingroom all day. They are so cute, they are not climbing on things but they are trying. I am worried they are going to get stepped on.
I love you babe but I am going to get in bed. I will probably not sleep but I will tell you about that later. You will probably laugh. You always see the good in things and make me laugh.
I love you babe,
Pamela PETRIE
Can I just say that I love you? Thank you for loving me for my short comings. Thank you for being there for me when I need you or just want to vent.
We had a great day. How could it not be great when you are on line for more than a minute to talk to me? Michael’s doctor’s appointment went great. She said his blood work looked wonderful. She will see us again in a month. I think I was a little too harsh about her last month because she was very nice to us this time and did not even mind the girls being there. Honest, I think she was impressed that all four kids could be in her office at the same time.
You would have laughed at me this afternoon. We went to Hancock’s to get ribbon and then got lost going to Aldi’s. Am I right that in Germany they only took cash? I asked a strange man in the parking lot if they accepted credit cards. I know I could have just gone in and asked but I did not want to take everyone in if I did not need to. The kids would have stayed there all day putting quarters in the carts. I bought a seedless watermelon and am going to make candied watermelon with part of it.
I stopped at the thrift shop close to the house and found about 10 shirts for Faith and 2 for Hope. Michael bought the battle ship game. He must have beat Faith 10 times tonight; I did not play with him.
We straightened up when we got home and I got the laundry put away. Can I tell you I miss you more on days that laundry needs put away?
We are not going anywhere tomorrow and hope to get school done early so we can work on some projects done. I need to make sure we are getting ready for vacation soon. Anything special I can get for you when we are gone.

Dear Rob,
I love you and miss you. Do I even need to say that? We had a good day. We got school done. I re made mozzarella sticks that came out GREAT.
I did something new and exciting today but I am not going to tell you what it was but I will give you some clues:
1. I almost had to change my undies afterwards; I guess that is what having four kids does to you.
2. Neighbors could hear me squealing
3. The houses across the street from us was staring at me
4. My legs were beyond wobbly afterwards 5 I had so much fun and cannot wait to do it again.
Can you believe a year ago tonight you had your first surgery. It seems like so long ago one minute and the other minute I can remember it like it was yesterday. Thanks for forgiving me for not being so funny the first time I changed your packing.
Thank you so much for calling today, I cannot wait to talk to you tomorrow and tell you what I did so you can laugh. Can you believe I was outside today in a tank top and pajama pants. It was so worth it?
I love you babe,
Pamela PETRIE
