Miss Kelsey

At some point in the last year and a half most of my closest friends have said, "I need a Kelsey!" To be honest, most of them said it multiple times. I'm sorry to tell you all that there is not another Kelsey in this world (and you can't have ours).



CONGRATULATIONS, Miss Kelsey!! Our favorite college gal graduated from IUPUI Sunday, May 12th. I have no idea how she did it all this semester but she did. She watched our kids 3 to 4 days a week, coached club volleyball, applied for grad school & networked for a GA position (she got it!), and don't forget about classes. She told me her final grades earlier this week and she is a smarty too! (Nothing less than a B+)

THANK YOU, Miss Kelsey!! Thank you for making my transition back to full time work, outside the house a little easier. Thank you for putting my mind at ease knowing Raelyn and Max were in good hands. Thank you for sending me pictures each day of my cute kids. Thank you for planning fun activities and crafts for them.  Thank you for being a stickler about saying please and thank you. Thank you for loving them with all your heart.

WE LOVE YOU, Miss Kelsey!! I heard you. I heard you every day tell Raelyn & Max, "I love you." And I hear them loud and clear. Raelyn with words, "I LOVE Miss Kelsey!" Max with his face lighting up when he saw you each morning, with his smile that shouted "I love Miss Kelsey too", and his tears when you drove away Thursday as if you were driving away for the final time.

WE'LL MISS YOU, Miss Kelsey but we'll SEE YOU SOON!! The kids will miss seeing you every day but we're so glad that you're not leaving town.

Wow! I am speechless (and in tears). I am truly blessed that God lead me to your family. Thank you for EVERYTHING you have done for me!! Thank you for trusting me with your kids and for letting me love them. They are the sweetest kids and I will miss watching them grow everyday. They will be great in school and I am looking forward to hearing all about it!! I'm also already looking forward to sending you and Mark out on date night just so I can spend my evening with Max and Raelyn!! I love you guys!! You're the best!
