JayceyGirl,

I don't know what to say..... one question: did your mom help you with this????

Sunsets are one of my favoritest things, ever!! Once while I was working in the sugarbeet harvest, I hit the Emergency Off switch in the tarehouse and the entire machine stopped immediately, solely because there was THE most gorgeous sunset EVER at that split second and I couldn't wait a minute more, I knew it would change! So I hit the switch and climbed up the boom arm, clambered over the top of the gigantic mountain of sugarbeets the drivers had brought in from their fields, and I actually laid down on top of that dirty, smelly pile -- so I could be up there right in the scads of colors that were being spread out clear across the sky~

How did you know I love sunsets?? (the piano and organ, well, that's easy for anyone who even remotely knows me, but the sunset???? You are amazing!!!!!!!)

*laughing* for your information, you precious girl, I have FIVE afghans I'm working on right now, I just finished the one for your newest cousin, and am madly working on the one for my newest grandbaby -- *chuckle* I HAD planned on finishing it in another four weeks or so, but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO he had to make me work my little hands off to get it done much too early!!!!! *grin*

And you knew I was/am the world's biggest chocoholic??? *shaking my head in amazement*

Did Abbie tell you about my planned trip to Scotland someday after she graduates??? Not going to go to the big tourist-y spots, I want to rent a cottage and live with the Scottish people...

By the way, can I tell you something that you probably don't know yet? You are the great-great-great-great (how many greats, I have it out in my car if you want the exact amount) granddaughter of Isabel, the Princess of Scotland, who's father, natch, was the King of Scotland..... (I just sent an email to your mom today with that pedigree enclosed, so go ask her to see it and you'll get really jazzed, I hope~!) It's a beautiful country, Mt. Ben Lomond (in Ogden) was named by a homesick lady from Scotland, so she was allowed to name that much-seen majestic peak after her much-missed and loved craggy peak back in Scotland which carried the same name originally~

Thank you, JEWHTW (*chuckle* did I get that right?), for this lovely gift you gave me.

I love you, muchly,
your lucky Aunt Karilyn
