In 1973, Kate was 3, Cindy 6 and Lynn 7. You see them sitting in the living room of the Palatine house in front of a hooked rug Dan and I made.
On Kate's first birthday in April, 1971, Grandma Ruth Kellogg, who was visiting, said that they took movies of Katie "celebrating with a twinkie cake and a match candle in her high chair." On May 12 Lynn opened her gifts from Mom and Dad, who were still away at a business-related golf tournament in Las Vegas. One was a doll with hair that "grows", only it didn't!
On Cindy's birthday (which happens to be today,
July 13) back in 1971 Diane and Dan were home and the Kelloggs back in Florida. Ruth decided to knit a coat for Lynn - and another for Cindy if Lynn's worked out well. There is a mention in August of starting a pink knit coat for Cindy. Ruth also mentions that she had gifts for the girls - skirts and a dress - "bagged for the trip north" later in the year.
