The Voice of a Child!

Yesterday I called my brother to get his new address and my niece answered the phone.  "Hello"?

I was surprised to hear a fragile little voice on the other side of the line, and said "is this Tyler?"

and she said, "Yes"

I said, "This is Uncle Richard in NY."

She got so excited and yelled to my sister in law......"IT'S UNCLE RICHARD AND HE'S CALLING ME FROM NEW YORK!"

It was so cute!  We talked for a few minutes and she told me all about her Halloween costume.  She is going to be a fairy princess, with wings, and a pink dress.  It was the first time I have spoken with her on the phone, she is going to be five on Christmas Eve.  I can't believe how fast time goes by....Besides the changing of the seasons I guess I didn't notice or pay attention to time that much before I moved to NYC.  The only season in AZ was hot and hotter so time seemed to slip away unnoticed.  But children grow so fast and develop so quickly I would imagine the passing of time around them to be more evident?  All I know for sure is hearing that little girls voice was just what I needed to raise my spirits and I can't wait to see her at Thanksgiving.

Bye For Now!
