Hello everyone! I have so much going on I can hardly believe it! It started off with Zeke's graduation this last week on March 27, 2008.


Everyone should have gotten their invitations by now, even if the invitations came too late for anyone to attend. Hey, I just had a baby! I was so glad that Dad, Sabrina, and Piper made the terrible trek out here to attend the festivities. It was really great to have them here.


Yes, Zeke did graduate as Valedictorian and I could not have been prouder.


He gave a speech and I thought it was done in a manner that made him seem as if he does that sort of thing on a regular basis. (I thought talking in Church was bad!)


While Dad was here, we went to the Air & Space Museum and while I don't have any really good pictures, I did manage to get one of Dad in a Tornado Simulator. Yes, I do believe that is something that one can probably do only in Oklahoma.


The wind speed reached 79 miles an hour, and while the set up wasn't very good, I thought it was something everyone should try, if they happen to be at the museum and have the time to do it. The wind came down in a single shaft and therefore was only felt on the head and if one would move to the left, or right, they were out of the wind.


As far as being a Mom, it is not what I expected. Lauren was kind enough to give me two weeks of partial sleep. Now she has decided that she is hungry every two hours and I should be awake to feed her. I'm sure this is only a stage and I hope it doesn't last for any length of time.


With all that being said, I still firmly believe that she is the Cutest Daughter that has ever been born. Zeke and I are still adjusting to parenthood and will probably continue to do so for the next 20 years or so, but are enjoying it none-the-less.


Hope this letter finds you all doing well.
Love and miss you,

Zeke, Mylinda, and Lauren Ellis
