Oney's Bible

I got this letter on a Thursday before Oney was to get his Bible on that Sunday. We had already planned the weekend at the Lake and couldn't back out. Sittie volunteered to keep Oney for the weekend. I would have NEVER missed Ally getting her Bible or even Abby. I remember those Sundays very clearly. It was a special day. It is funny how you learn to take everything in stride with the 3rd child. You realize that you cannot possibly be everywhere for everybody all the time. It is also better for the child to know that you don't ALWAYS have to be at EVERY event. I was so proud of him and he was proud to get his Bible. He and his good friend Meredith Owen were the only two fourth graders.

He also celebrated Joseph's 10th birthday that weekend so they had a blast! Sittie took the three amigos (Jeanne Claire, Joseph and Oney) to the Smurf movie, Benihana's, shopping, and who knows where else! Then they came to Covington for the night.
