We wanted to take a few minutes to let you know that we've been thinking about you and praying for you (individually and as a family).
Some words that come to mind when we think about you are daring, brave, funny, infectious smile, spunky, positive, vocal soccer player, warm and cool. We love you and your family.
We thought you might like to know a few things about the Kellstedts that not everyone knows.
1. Elizabeth was 10 pounds (even) when she was born. She was a content baby who as long as she was well-fed would gaze adoringly at her big sister and dog Hoover.
2. Abigail was a not-so-cuddly baby who was walking at 9 months and pointing at things saying "Zhiss?" and "Zhatt?" We think she was saying, "What's this?" and "What's that?"
3. Deb had a unique summer job when she was 19 years old at Central Dupage Hospital in Chicago. She showed up there to work as a temporary worker (ask your parents what a temp. is) and was whisked into a locker room to put on scrubs including the shower cap, mask and foot coverings. She spent the summer as the secretary to the O.R. Her primary tasks included bringing donuts into the doctors' lounge, recharging the batteries for the on-call beepers and destroying flies that made it into the O.R.
4. Paul spent several summers during college working as a painter. His main gig was traveling around the Midwest painting Denny's restaurants. Name a small town in Wisconsin or Missouri or Illinois, and he probably painted the Denny's there. His specialty was painting the pole that said "Dennys-Always Open."
We hope to see you soon, Erin!
