Dear Mom and Dad:
Did Santa visit in the land of sand? Because when I woke up this morning, Santa had made it all the way to Camp Nana, and left packages for the campers, and YES a few for me again too! TWO VISITS FROM THE JOLLY OLE’ GUY…
Climbing and crawling and SLIDING AROUND, I have my own IN CAMP latex free GYM BOREE! So cool. Thank you Santa and all the campers!
I must have been soooooo good this past ten months at camp because between his visit here with you two, and this visit to see the other campers… well let’s just say, I have everything to play with a little princess could ever need. Being (dare I say it, the “s” word), spoiled… with gifts of love, and and adoration… well, is pretty awesome. Everyone I know, and who knows of us, wishes it were you and daddy, returned safely to us, under the Christmas tree… but alas, that is not possible, and until it is… I have toys and love from the campers to keep me pretty busy!
I think busy is an understatement take a look at this.. I have a swing, a slide and a pool of balls… so I can swim at camp too. Who knows maby my mini friends will come by and play too!
Here I am with the campers, learning how to drive… Uncle Nick is sharing the moment with Miss K who was in the land of Cheese for the holiday… but through technology could be at camp with me! We all missed her so much, but just like you and dad, everyone is able to stay connected with a little help from the internet, and a whole lot of love in their hearts.
You know how being busy helps time fly by faster… well, I figure with all the things I have to do, I will be keepin’ so busy that it will make these next few months pass QUICKLY, and it will make the time feel less here at camp before we will be together again! Great Grandma Sally sent packages for the campers and for me… and Great Grandma Sharyn made food for us to celebrate! We then traveled to Northville, to see Great Grandpa Ray! Look at me, a little Santa Baby…. on my way to celebrate the day!
In what has been a holiday tradition here at camp, we all got ready and drove out to to see Grandpa Ray, and you will never guess what happened….
Yep … More PACKAGES…Great Aunt and Uncles, and cousins everywhere… hugs and kisses galore.
Great Grandpa Ray even had a present for you and daddy…
Which Nana put away for you. He had one special for me too! And don’t you worry Mom and Dad, I said… Thank you everyone for all the wonderful things!
I have so much to be thankful for… and so many people loving me while you and daddy are away. They all are trying to make things easier on you and dad, and hoping you will see how that my time here is full of everything you would want it to be in your absence. Nana says, if Santa could have brought you both home to me, he would have… and in a short time… that will happen… until then, I will wait and play, I will always be your Little Miss Adorable, your daughter,
Guillianna! Sorry I didn’t look at the “beast” for many photos today, but hey, would you?
WE HOPE THAT ALL WHO SHARE IN MY LOVE LETTERS WITH YOU AND DAD HAD A WONDERFUL DAY, THAT THEY KNOW HOW MUCH NANA AND POPPY APPRECIATE ALL THE LOYAL FRIENDSHIP AND SUPPORT THEY HAVE BEEN GIVEN, and on this – and every day… all of us, in the USA are thinking of so many active duty service men and women who could not be home for the holiday, with their parents, or children – or siblings and spouses. May they all know… we have gratitude beyond measure, and wish for peace , for good health & safety, and happiness that fills their souls in the new year! ALL OUR LOVE, FROM CAMP NANA!
