From Mama Sue:

**************
I forgot to tell you that I missed a meeting Thursday night, because I just plain forgot it. When one member called me, I told her I wasn't even sure what month it was, much less what day of the week, month, etc. It wasn't too important, thankfully. I miss Jessie's sweet little hands helping me. It didn't matter what I was doing, she would drop whatever she was doing and say, "I hep you." When she put clothes into the dryer, each piece I handed to her, she would say, "Thank you."
She didn't get into the cabinets like I expected she would. She did see where I got the Jello packages from. Then she would go to that cabinet and ask for Jello. She didn't bother the things under the microwave after I told her they weren't toys. She did ask me "What's that?" about each item----several times. Maybe she thought I would break down and let her have them to play with, but I didn't.
I think one of the cutest things she said was when I gave her a small flashlight to play with when I was changing her. She wanted me to turn the dark on.
She was good to ask for a paper towel when she would spill a bit of milk on the floor. I sent her to ask Daddy Jim to get her a paper towel because she made a mess. She did. Then Daddy Jim came and asked me what she was trying to tell him. He said he got the towel part but not the rest of it. She and I got to where we could communicate pretty well.

I want to thank you and Holly for trusting us with your precious Jessie, especially since she was so sick. I just felt so helpless when she felt so bad, just the way I felt when you and Diana were sick. I know it was hard for you to leave her down here so long. We had some very nice times with her in between fevers! She was just as loving with us as she is with you.
Daddy Jim was touched by her looking so much like Diana, especially her hair. It warmed my heart to see him playing with her. Thank you again.

Bye now and tell Jessie and Jamie we love them.
Love,
Mama Sue

Yes, I opened that picture of Jamie in here shopping basket with
Jessie in my lap. So, she has seen it, and you know she doesn't
forget!!! You gave her the idea!
Yeah, I should be recovered by Thanksgiving! Oh, we really are doing
fine. I just rest when I get a chance. She just plays around
wherever I am. She helps me with whatever I do. She carries one end
of the laundry basket and puts clothes in the dryer and takes them out
when they are dry. I love watching her help. She is anxious to
please most of the time. Of course, she has her "no" times. But I
get on to her when she tells me no when I tell her to do something.

Enjoying a "campfire" out on the back driveway. Is it still a campfire if you're not camping? We spent most of the afternoon out there.

Mama Sue and Daddy Jim are taking such good care of me!

In one she is saying, Hi Mommy.

In one she is saying, Hi, Daddy.

In one or two she is waving to you.

Jessie is doing fine. I changed her
dirty diaper a while ago. Then Granny put her clothes on her. I thought
Granny would like that. She ate egg for breakfast. Then later came
back for her bacon.
