This week is fire prevention week. Which is good because the fires are raging all around us! We had ash falling out of the sky today, and some of our friends got evacuated. Pray for RAIN!
Emma did her fire safety poster last week. And as you saw, they got to go to the station, too. They are having other things this week, too. And tonight they did a parade through housing.
I can't be sure, but I think all this fire business makes her miss Daddy. She has been talking a lot about missing Daddy and Pepper lately. She even said she wasn't listening in school because she missed them. :( She had trouble sleeping tonight, so we talked about school and watched Daddy videos. In some of our talking I was talking about seeing our families, and told her Daddy would be home after Valentines Day. Her eyes lit up. A year is a LONG time to anyone, and forever for a little girl. She has been quite the trooper. It has been a year full of big life events (losing Pepper, friends moving, mom working, wedding, starting kindergarten). If you think of it, would you send a card, letter or whatever you can think of? (I saw some cute kitten ones at the dollar store.) She loves to get mail, and needs some extra love right now.
She drew a picture of our house. She is in the living room, I'm in the bathroom. :/ The fire is in the kitchen and she drew lines and arrows for how we should get out of the house, and meet at the tree. Also, you may notice she drew Daddy at the fire station.
Sweet Emma. We'll get some love in the mail......may need to PM you for your address.
