Dear Kaylen, I got your letter tonight. We do not always pick up our mail every day so that is why I am just now getting it. It made me so happy to receive your letter! Thanks for writing. I am sorry that you thought I wanted to stop writing to you and start writing to your brothers. It is not like that at all. I just thought it would be nice for your brothers if I wrote to them and not you for a change since you always get most of my letters. I meant to write to you sooner. I am really sorry that you felt that I was upset with you over not writing to me more. I wasn’t sad, although I have missed your letters. I miss you and I do understand that you like to play with your friends. I also understand that you’ve been going to Apopka recently. Thanks for writing and wanting to explain why I haven’t heard from you lately. It is OK. It sounds like you are looking forward to school. Let me know when you need another book to read, and I will send you one. You probably better let me know what author or series you are reading in. I have a question. Is it easy for you to read words like – doesn’t? I just wondered. I have continued to write does not instead of doesn’t and that kind of thing. I think you must be reading words like wasn’t, I’m, and you’re. Let me know if you are, OK? I love you!!! Miss you too. You asked how I have been doing. Papa Ralph and I are doing very well. We saw four otters yesterday, just like the ones we saw at Rock Springs in Kelly Park. I will be sending you pictures of them very soon. We also found a new type of dragonfly today; he flys so sweet and gently. He is different from the other dragonflies. When it’s sitting on a leaf it holds it’s wings differently from the others too. It was fun to get the pictures of the otters. They were on the property we live on in the creek. It is so nice to be able to live with nature all around us. Tomorrow we will go searching for the otters again. We didn’t find them today, so we don’t know if they stay here all the time or not. Did you get your hair cut yet? I was just wondering, because you wrote to me about it. It will look good however you wear it. It will be easier to care for if it’s shorter. Maybe you can send me a school picture this year. It will be nice to see how you look with your new hair cut. I am happy for you and Buddy that you were able to get cool back packs. I have seen pink camo back packs in Wal-Mart before, I think. I know I’ve seen some pink camo stuff of some kind recently. I think it’s cool that you and your brother got camo pencils too! It makes it fun to start school with new school supplies. I gave you my email so when your parents let you begin to use email, you’ll be able to write to me that way. Let me know in the future when you do have your own email address, OK? I know your parents probably don’t want you to begin using email yet, and I understand that. Well, I am getting sleepy, so I’m going to close for now. Thanks again for writing. You sure wrote a long letter this time! That was a surprise. Tell Timmy and Buddy that Papa Ralph and I love and miss them too. Also, tell Buddy that I am not mad at him for not writing me back. By the way, Papa loves you. He just is not good at writing letters.
Love you bunches!!! Mimi 8-15-07
