A Love Letter Under The red Bud Tree written by Katie Carmack

Emily, a shy American girl, moves to the Amish community in Buffalo, Missouri, where she meets Jacob, a handsome Amish cowboy, at a local grocery store. They begin exchanging heartfelt letters under an old red bud tree, with Jacob teaching Emily Pennsylvania Deitsch. Emily's baking skills, especially her cinnamon rolls and pecan pie, win over Jacob's family and the community. They celebrate their first anniversary with traditional Amish customs, surrounded by love and support from their community. Their journey is marked by faith, love, and the joy of finding a true home in each other. Jacob and Emily's twins, a boy named Ethan, and a girl named Lily, brought even more joy and love into their lives. Each child had a unique personality that complemented their parents and enriched their family dynamic.

Ethan was a curious and adventurous boy, always eager to explore the world around him. He inherited Jacob's love for animals and the outdoors, often spending hours playing with the farm animals and helping with chores. Ethan had a natural talent for building things, much like his father, and he loved working alongside Jacob on various projects around the farmhouse. His inquisitive nature and boundless energy kept everyone on their toes, and his laughter was a constant source of happiness.

Lily, on the other hand, was gentle and thoughtful, with a deep love for books and stories. She shared Emily's shyness but had a quiet confidence that shone through in her creative pursuits. Lily loved to sit with Emily in the kitchen, learning to bake and listening to stories about their family's journey. She had a talent for drawing and often filled the farmhouse with her beautiful artwork, capturing the serene landscapes and moments of their life in Hiroshima. Lily's compassionate nature made her a beloved friend to everyone in the community.
