Dear Sis,

Last year you ventured to Caesar’s Creek Pioneer Village with me with a three month old! This year we decided on an August event since baby sister is due in September:) 

I hope it was worth the travel and sewing days:) The kids had fun and we stayed cool enough to make it through alive! Summer events when pregnant, in hind site, perhaps not the best idea:)

Despite your dismay at the brightness of the pink fabric you ordered online, I think your bonnet and apron pulled it together nicely! You are now the fuchsia dress queen:)

Civil War Maternity wear is funny. Nobody who didn’t know could tell I’m five weeks from having a baby. Maybe they just thought I was fat:)

Although it stared raining, William diligently awaited the 3 o’clock cannon blast. “The Boom” is by far his very favorite part of this event! This year and last:) Come to think of it… Battery Hooper 2018 was his very first event ever!

Love,

b
