We had a fun time on the 4th of July and Poppy met some new friends. She also appeared in the local newspaper afterwards.
Poppy in the paper
Motherhood is about raising - and celebrating - the child you have, not the child you thought you would have. It's about understanding that she is exactly the person she is supposed to be. And that, if you're lucky, she just might be the teacher who turns you into the person you are supposed to be.

Hi Girls,
My goodness, you look very happy Poppy in this picture in the newspaper. It is a lovely story as well.
I hope you both are all having a good time in Nelson and as I am coming down for a week at the end of January 2010 I would love to catch up with my favorite South Island people for a coffee and perhaps a fluffy for you Poppy?

Look forward to hearing from you soon

I cried reading the article… I’m such a patriotic sap. You’re so wonderful to do this for Americans far from home.
