Gratitude


Thanks Dad for the new camera. I love that it is exactly
like my old one- maybe a little flatter so perfect for putting
in my pocket! I love taking pictures.

I am going to write in the first person tonite. I can't believe I have written over 800 blog entries for Oliver! I started this blog because my friend Linda in Washington said how wonderful it would be for the Grandmas back home in San Diego. So, thanks Linda!

If I am ever too tired to write- I always think about Grandma waiting up until I post, or Grammie going to her computer first thing in the morning, or cousin Denny in Wisconsin with her cup of hot coffee reading about Oliver, but what really made me smile was when Aunt Jessica said that the first thing Chad did the morning after their wedding was read my blog-so sweet- those thoughts keep me writing and the fact that Oliver will have a really special memory book to read when he is older. I love that little guy!

I thank you for all the wonderful updates/stories/photos you put here, Meredith! It's a labor of love, that is well appreciated. :o) xo

Meredith,

I love your blog, I know you are very tired sometimes yet you always soldier on! Your titles and text are so imaginative and creative. You always were a good writer.

You do such a great job on special events in Oliver's life: weddings, deaths, and births. Your pictures and descriptions of these milestones are always a tribute to the event and the people involved. I am very proud to call you my daughter as I know Dad is too.

Love, Mom
