Um, Miss Suze, that is Mama's coffee!

Camille insisted on wearing this "pretty dress", and I had her wear sneakers to protect the toe with the horribly mangled toenail...
Kathryn hurt her toe...Margaret cleaned it up and bandaged it.

Sonja Kathleen at the park. My mother would love S.K., who has her middle name. My mom had red hair, none of her seven children inherited it, although some of us have reddish highlights. She died when Sonja K. was only four.

Suzanne straightened the shoes the other day.

Abigail came over yesterday and took Sonja, Char, and Camille in the pool, and gave them lunch on the deck. Then they watched, "Matilda", while I cleaned and straightened their room, getting ready for the bunkbeds. Paul was gone car shopping with Mirielle and Aaron, and of course the car-loving Jonathan. Evelyn and Suze were shopping with their cousin Claire (thank you so much Claire!) Claire took them to the mall, bought them each shirts from Hollister, took them to Panera Bread, then for ice cream! (for Ev's birthday, which is coming up next week.) And Margaret and Kathryn were gone with Emily on an outing to the falls with some other girls from church.

Paul came home and put those beds together. It hours and hours, and the girls were so excited. At 11:00, they were done, so they slept in them. Jonathan slept in there on the floor with them, to catch some of the excitement. Also, his roomates were gone, Sonja went home with Emily and Suzanne was sleeping in Kathryn's room.

Jonathan has been playing with the Easy-Bake oven, he wants me to make him some more batter...
