Grandpa Charlie picks tomatoes

Hi Sibyl,

Grandpa Charlie wants to show you how he picks tomatoes
in our garden. First, they are little yellow flowers. Then they
are little green tomatoes. Then they grow to be big red tomatoes.
They smell very good.

Grandpa Charlie is putting them in a basket, so that we can eat
them for dinner.

Love,

The fish come back

Hi Sibyl,

Do you remember how when you sat in the waves on the beach
your fish would come back, so that you could put them in your
pink pail? That was lots of fun.

Next year, we will go back to the beach, all of us together. But
that is a long time from now. Before that, I will come to see
you in October.

Love,

Upside down

Hi Sibyl,

Mom and Pop sometimes pick you up and hold you upside down. Upside down
Sibyl! And sometimes Mildred goes upside down.

Have a look at yourself upside down.

Love,

Carrying water

Hi Sibyl,

I was sorry to hear that you were not feeling well. I hope you
are feeling better now.

Here's a video of you and your Mom at the beach. Do you remember
when she made all those sand castles? You needed lots of water
for those castles. Have a look.

Love,

The playground

Hi Sibyl,

Can you remember when you played in the playground with Grandpa
Charlie and Mom. You were visiting us at our house with the hose.
First you played with the dirt, then you went on the airplane. After
that you went on the swing.

It was so nice to have you here. Here's a video of our adventures.

Love,

Thank you for the card

Hi Sibyl,

Thank you so much for the nice card you sent Grandpa Charlie and I.
You made such a nice crayon drawing for us. It's so good to know
that you liked the beach and our "house with the hose."

Love,

Swimming with Mom

Hi Sibyl,

Can you remember how you went swimming with Mom at the beach? You
were very good in the water. You splashed and you kicked. Mom told you
to blow bubbles. Have a look at this video.

Tomorrow Grandpa Charlie and I are going out in the kayak. We will
paddle in a lake.

Love,

finding the cat

Hi Sibyl,

Do you remember how you and Leora went upstairs at Aunt Ellen's
house to find the cat? It was a nice black cat, but it wanted to hide.
So you followed it upstairs and it hid under the bed. You and Aunt
Amy looked under the bed at the cat.

I hope you are liking your fridge letters. They are lots of fun.

Love,

Out in the kayak

Hi Sibyl,

Can you remember going in the kayak at the beach house? You went with Mom
and Uncle Norman in a boat called a kayak. The three of you went way down the
beach in the water. Then when you came back, Pop picked you up out of the boat.

Are you having fun at your new school? You are a good girl.

Love,

The carousel ride

Hi Sibyl,

Do you remember when you rode the horse on the carousel? It was
such fun, and you waved to Grandpa Charlie and I.

We miss you very much.

I saw that you went to school. You are such a big girl now.

Love,
