Dear Hayden,

Every few months, our church has special a special Sunday called Love in Action Sunday. On these special Sundays, our whole church family meets at church, then we get into groups and go into the community and do different projects. Today, you and Dad went. You helped back lunches for the homeless and paint the walls of a local school! You had a great time and it sure tuckered you out! It’s fun to see your enthusiasm for helping others!

Love you,
Mama

Dear H and O,

Today was an absolutely lovely day! We spent a while outside this afternoon planting in the garden and playing around. It was a great time and the sunshine was warm and wonderful.

Love you,
Mama

Dear Hayden,

Each year, your preschool does a Trike-A-Thon to benefit families that have needs at the school. You had a blast riding your scooter and this year the money went to two families who have moms who are fighting cancer right now. It was a fun day and and a fun way to help others!

Love you,
Mama

Dear Hayden and Owen,

Today we had a really nice Valentine’s Day! Hayden, you had a party at school yesterday and you came home with your Valentine box FILLED with cards and candy! Today, we baked a cake that we enjoyed after dinner! Jackie, Madison, Andrew and Jaxson were here to enjoy it with us, too. Also, you both really enjoyed this year’s heart scavenger hunt — which ended with much needed new shoes and balls to play with! You two bring us so much love every day!

Love you,
Mama
