Keys, Go Gets,work, and cousin updates!


Poppy getting mom's keys!!

I have been doing a great job picking up mom's keys whenever she "drops" them. Wherever she is and whatever room she is in, if she drops her keys.. i just pick them up and keep following her.. she gets soooooo excited when she realizes she "dropped" her keys!!

I am learning to "go get Lisa!" I have been doing such a great job "go getting mom" that we started working on go get lisa. Mom uses the "L" sign and says go get lisa and i run to lisa and bring her back to mom!!

I have now officially worked my first two full weeks of 20 hours each.. my first 40 hours of work these past two weeks at the city. They are starting to fall in love with me there... who'da guess??!! Next week will be an adventure.. two camps!! First nature camp in the morning with the preschool and then city camp in the afternoon for the city...i will be outside with the 2 year old class with mom for the preschool and in the office hanging out and also visiting the kids in the afternoon city camp. Will let you know how the week goes with pictures!

My aunt cyndee and uncle scott have been in the hospital the past two days...my cousin twins who are inside aunt cyndee's tummy have really good heartbeats, but aunt cyndee started bleeding and having contractions and they are only 7 months and just too tiny to come out yet. So we visited uncle scott and aunt cyndee in the hospital and are praying that the babies and aunt cyndee will be OK and get to come home soon and have bed rest until it is time for the cousins to come out of her tummy. Will keep you all posted on my cousin twins!!


Wags and Licks!
Poppy

Hi Poppy,
You are amazing learning all these new things to help your Mom. I know she really apprecaites your dedication.
I have a question for you or your Mom: Is there something special on your Mom's key chain to make it easy for you to pick up?
I wasn't sure, but am very interested in finding out.
Rocky, Danner & I will keep your Aunt, Uncle and your new cousins in our thoughts. I'm sure all will be fine.
I'm so happy to hear that you have been working with your Mom. I knew you would win them over. Now the fun stuff; KIDS!!!!
Have a wonderful week and I can't wait to hear about your exciting times at camp!

Love Aunt Sharon

Wow, you are amazing! I love hearing about your adventures and it helps me to picture what the puppy I am training might do with the skills I am teaching him. I honestly figured you would fit in well at work. Yippee! I am glad they love you.

POPPY, TRACY AND LISA,
I'VE BEEN OUT OF TOUCH FOR A BIT BUT WAS THRILLED TODAY TO READ ABOUT YOUR ADVENTURES AT WORK. I KNEW TRACY WOULD WIN, AND OF COURSE EVERYONE LOVES POPPY ONCE THEY GET TO KNOW HER. I AM SOOOOOOO PROUD OF YOU POPPY FOR LEARNING YOUR NEW SKILLS AND PICKING UP TRACY'S KEYS WHEN SHE DROPS THEM. I NEED YOU HERE TO HELP ME FIND MY KEYS, I AM ALWAYS LAYING THEM DOWN AND FORGETTING WHERE I LEFT THEM. CAMP SOUNDS LIKE A BALL. I USED TO TAKE GROUPS OF KIDS TO CHURCH CAMP WHEN I WAS YOUNGER BUT I NEVER HAD A HELPER LIKE YOU. TRACY'S LUCKY. YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL IN THOSE PICTURES TRACY SENT. TINO, DUDE, GINGER AND I WILL KEEP YOUR UNCLE SCOTT AND AUNT CYNDEE IN OUR PRAYERS AS WELL AS THOSE TWO SWEET BABIES. I'LL BET YOU CHEERED EVERYONE UP ON YOUR TRIP TO THE HOSPITAL. BE GOOD POPPY AND GIVE TRACY AND LISA A LOVE LICK FROM ME AND A BELLY RUB FOR YOU. I LOVE YA
GRANDMA MARTI
