I was headed to see you the other day and I saw a cloud that was very long and thin. It reminded me of a slide and made me think about when we went down the slide at the fair, the one we had to sit on the burlap sacks for. Remember? It took us 3-yrs to talk the carni into letting me take you down that slide but it was worth it! You always loved slides, the longer the better! I found a picture yesterday of you and me at Brumbaugh's, it was during one of your field trips in pre-school. You and mommy were, of course, sliding down a big slide! Like always there was a huge smile on your face!!!
Fair starts tomorrow and I wish you were here to enjoy it! The whether is even your kind of wheather! You loved the lights and watching all the people! I remember your first fair! Daddy, mommy, and you went one night. You were not a happy little girl so we decided to go ahead and come home. Mommy was thirsty and got a Mountain Dew (what else would I get) and put it into the cup holder on your stroller which you were facing. You instantly stopped crying!!!! To test it we took the MD away and you started crying again!! We put it back in front of you and presto you stopped! We did this a couple of times just to make sure it wasn't a coincidence. You were happy as long as you could see the MD! So we ended up staying at the fair a little longer. That was just the start of you liking your MD!! There's no denying your are my daughter!I love you with all my heart!!!
