Hawaii continues to treat us wonderfully, and we are enjoying our time here tremendously. It's going to be hard to leave next year, perhaps you can speak to someone at Daddy's job and see if we can stay longer. A girl can dream :)
I have worked hard this year, talking up a storm, making new friends and learning to be a big girl. Sleeping in a bed, using the toilet, dressing myself and putting on my own shoes have been huge milestones, or so I've been told. I am looking forward to our visitors over the holidays and this year helped Mommy put up the Christmas tree. Like every little girl, I can't wait until Christmas morning and though my parents keep using the words "spoiled" and "loot", I'm sure they are just as excited.
I hope you have a very Merry Christmas, Santa. Hello to Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donner, Blitzen and Rudolf.
Love Ella
