Good ol' Mary Allison!
At the ripe old age of 14, she is committed to our girls like no other!
We made a deal back when she was young (13!) that she would come over every Sunday and give me some time to do a little something for me. It gives me some freedom in the house, and I still get to be home with my girls.
I love that Mary Allison sees that for Ellie Sue, just sitting and watching her simple WILL NOT DO!
Ellie is interactive! She is a full, full, full-time job! She wants your undivided attention at all times!

Very important stuff! And please make time to notice the table linens!
Ellie thinks Mary Allison rocks.
We think she is pretty grand too! We call her our surrogate daughter.
Her mom and dad have done a good job raising her. I will be perfectly satisfied if my girls grow up with the same values, generosity, and joy that our Mary Allison shares with us.

Love that girl!
She sounds like a treasure!
Mo..just wanted to share...we've got 2 little girls,that I've kept for 14 years and watched grow up just the way that Mary Allison does with your girls. I started keeping them when the oldest (Now 15) was 6 mos, and they literally are like family. Mary Allison more than likely appreciates your girls and family more than you know, and it will be so special to you all to have her around while they grow up!! It is one of the coolest "bonds" to have surrogate family members like you guys!!! Enjoy her!
You rock Mary Allison!! Have a great Sunday tomorrow!!
Please thank her parents for such a wonderful young lady!
Its obivious Mary Allison loves your girls! Good babysitters are so hard to find...looks like you are really blessed.
