Another Fire!
Week 8: Saturday
Christian:
We lost Charlotte early this morning.
Charlotte is buried near Angel under the maple tree.
I am devastated. Loni and I cried in each other’s arms.
We finished the kids’ bedrooms. Both rooms have a desk and computer.

Week 9: Sunday
Loni had another boy. We chose the name Parker for him.
He is a Sagittarius, clumsy, and easily impressed. He likes Tri-Tip Tofu Steak, Hip Hop music, and the color spiceberry.
Phoenix learned how to walk in time for his birthday.
September: How was your day, Dad?
Christian: It’s been good so far.
September: Tag! You’re it!
We ran around the farm playing tag, when I heard an alarm going off at the Miller home next door. I ran over and there was a fire at their back door! I started battling the flames and was soon joined by the local fire department. We were able to put out the flames with minimal damage to the home.
That’s the second time this week. They need to be more careful.
Patch Miller brought me a stick, so I played fetch with him for a while.
When I returned home, I found September building a snowman. It turned out to be a grim reaper snowman. She didn’t look too happy with the results.
Loni, Phoenix, Evan, and MaryJo are all celebrating birthdays. Loni wanted a quiet birthday, and it’s already been crazy around here today. Loni didn’t have time to make cakes, so I had three delivered this afternoon.
Phoenix was the first to blow out his candles.
He’s rocking his bald head! He’s decided to become a vegetarian.
MaryJo was next.
And finally Evan.
After the children were all in bed, Loni celebrated quietly. We have so much leftover cake!
