Day One without Betsy...Ella meets pavement

Betsy is off to Boston with her sister to see family and her cutest newphew Emmett. If you have not heard of Emmett and his amazing journey, just check him out here. ourbravelittlelion.blogspot.com/ He is a staple in the girls' prayers and they act as if they have know him forever, although they have never met...or have they? ;)

SO. We have one of our Russian friends watching the girls, which is so fun, since we ask that she only speak Russian to them. Its fun to come home and hear them chatting with one another. I love it!
Ella must have been missing Betsy alot as she decided to "kiss the pavement" while they waited for Sof to get out of school in the playground. Poor girl. It  includes scratches a huge bump and the latest has been a bit of a black eye...It has been getting more swollen, and alot more colorful...so sad.

It will make for some great pics at the pumpkin patch today...SMILE!
