My sweet sweet Bryce,
Last week when you kids were together, I was asking you about 5th grade and the middle school and talking with you about it and Kiera said "Bryce, will you still love me when you find your friends?" and you get those loving eyes looking at me then her and says "Oh Kiera, of course I will still love you"   Then that evening when Kiera's parents came here she told them what you had said to her and Kiera said to you "will you still love me as much as you do now?"  How precious is that.
This past week was a magician show at Chautauqua and it was the eve of your birthday.  I didn't think you would be allowed to come but your mommy asked you what you wanted to do and you wanted to go to the magician show.  I felt so honored that you wanted to be with all of us on your birthday eve and the morning of, (we spent the night at the lake house).  As we were walking through the Chautauqua institute you were noticing the beautiful houses and you said "I wish i could spend the night here and walk around in the morning and look at all the beautiful houses"  I would love to take you there for a night or more!!!   And it shows me you are definitely getting older b/c you were so appreciating the beautiful homes.
I love you so much
xxoo

My precious Bryce,
You are such a sweet girl and I love you so much.
I was having Caden help me wrap presents for your birthdays and I had a girl statue for an 11 year old, (I get you one a year for the age you are). Anyhow, I said "isn't it pretty?"  And you said "Bryce is pretty but this girl is not"
And you are so pretty!!
I love you
xxoo
