With love for Kaeci
When you were conceived you were a welcome Suprise. Daddy and I were so happy, then when the doctors told us that you may have medical problems, we were shocked, and concerned. The doctor's ran extra tests and told us you were a girl. Daddy insisted on picking out your name I agreed to allow him to pick your name if I could pick out the spelling, and if he agreed that your middle name would be the same as his. He agreed and so you became Kaeci Rae. your brother and sister were so excited. B.J. would talk to you and Kelli would just sit there. I don't think she knew what to think, and I know she wasn't happy that I couldn't play with her like I did before you. When it was time to have you, we thought you were gonna be born at the birthing center like Kelli was but you had different plans. When we got to the hospital, the doctors thought they were going to do a C-section but once again you had your own ideals. You were born feet first, but you were healthy, which proved all the doctors wrong. As you got bigger, you always tryed to have things your way. When you were about 8 months old, i had you in your walker, but you wanted me to pick you up, when I didn't you made sure I knew where you were, by getting right behind me, causeing me to fall, you thought that was funny, you giggled so cute. As you started walking, you became so independent, always wanting to do things on you own. You learned to how to climb almost before you started to walk. I remember one day you climbed the rope swing, and you statred to scream. At first dad and I couldn't figure out what was wrong then you started saying DOWN, so dad had to climb up and get you. But that never stopped you as soon as dad got you down you climbed right back up there again. Finally dad tied the rope up where you couldn't reach it, you screamed and cried. Then you found dirt, to the day you were taken from us we always knew where to find you if you had gotten out of the house. We just had to look out the front door and you would be in the ditch, digging holes and then you would sit in that hole and put the dirty back over you. You have always been more like me then your brother or sister, you like doing things your way, no matter what anyone says. You are really stuborn, and have an aditude almost as bad as mommy. But you are also very strong, if you want something you go after it, it may take you awhile but you still go after it, and you don't take no crap from anyone. You were doing so much better in school before they took you, now you have been kicked out of school, for being the bullheaded kid that you are doing things your way. Baby mommy and daddy love you and miss you very much. Hopefully it will only be a few more days until you get home, then we can be a family again. love Mom and Dad
