APRIL 2018

Hello my darling Em,

On 6 April you had your treatment again.  Mom said, "Not a tear or a moan and Yubbie also got a bandage this time".

On 15 April Winnie Mandela, 2nd wife of Nelson Mandela, and once known as the 'Mother of the Nation' was buried.  She died on 2 April.  You will learn about her in history classes and perhaps you will remember that she died when you were 9 years old.




You had a wonderful Easter holiday at the Vaal River with Mom and Dad and some of the Leaver boys.



You often have to help Gumpie with his cell phone and you taught him how to 'Ask Google' instead of typing questions, and also how to take photographs.  

On his birthday you helped him blow out a candle.  Mom made him a special sugar-free trifle.

 Reading on a rainy day
Like most little girls you like to model your pretty dresses.  This is one I bought for you in Spain.  You look gorgeous in it!



This lovely little buck comes to visit you in your garden


Mom's friend Beverly Payne posted this adorable photograph of you on Facebook 
from 2011 with you loving Becca at the Highland Gathering.

At Sharon's birthday you helped to blow out her candles.
 You played 'Happy Birthday' on your ukulele for us

And this is the sign your Mom and Dad had made for your new home.

You have stayed in three places since you were born and we hope that you will be very happy in this lovely house for many years.

Big kisses XXXX
