Aunt Sarah & TeraGanix

This beautiful lady right here was my saving grace nine years ago. When I had Carli, it was Aunt Sarah who willingly trained and answered phones for me so I could have a little bit of time adjusting to being a new mom. And she didn't hesitate the day I called her when I was six months pregnant with Ava and told her that my patience no longer existed b/c I had just hung up on a rude customer. She answered the phones that day and has helped us out ever since. She's trained every new hire, changed her schedule to help us when illnesses came up and is the voice of encouragement after dealing with that "one" customer. She's the most patient, compassionate person you'll ever meet and she's been TeraGanix's saving grace for the last nine years. Next week is her last official week to work with TeraGanix and I just wanted to make sure she knew just how much she meant to me all these years and to the success of TeraGanix. Thanks Aunt Sarah for every reassuring word, calm encouragement and even the once in a blue moon moment of frustration! You are a blessing!

Ava's Writings

I love Troup schools and that the teachers make such an impact on my kids.  Ava brought home this paper after Thanksgiving break and I had to send it to Mrs. Ivy.  Every teacher should know what an impact they make on a kid's life.  I'm glad my girls have had so many already!


And then there are the pictures I get from Ava's teachers where Ava has to bring in the sibling rivalry and they just play right along!  Ha!  Mrs. Grigsby sent me a picture of this and then Mrs. Hultberg had it put aside to show me at the school Christmas party!

Future Teacher

Carli not only got her teacher to agree to let her go read to a 2nd grade classroom every Friday afternoon, but she got Ava and her teacher to agree to let her come to their classroom!  Ava's teacher sent me this picture with the caption:  Future teacher if I ever did see one!

Fourth TIme Around

Ten years ago I splurged and bought two diaper bags from Pottery Barn. I have no idea who but someone told me I should not have put Carli's initials on them bc then I couldn't use them with any future babies. Let's just say, I took that as a challenge and these bags are 6 wks away from serving the 4th Hays baby...proudly sporting all four monograms! Thanks Aunt Carolyn for all your help in finding a spot to add just one more set of initials!
