Mail

Jacob LOVES to get mail.

I said to Jeremy yesterday morning - it's going to be a good week, lots of mail for Jacob.

Last night, I was going through the mail and found a Valentine for JJ from Aunt Cindy and Uncle Ron (my eldest sister and her husband). I called JJ into the kitchen and held up his letter.

"A wetter? For me?"

Yep, a letter for you.

"For me?"

Yes, it's just for you.

"Open it?"

Yes, you can open it.

"Mommie, hewp me."

I start the corner for him and he rips into the envelope.

"Oh wow! A wetter! For me!" With a very high pitch squeal of delight!

He gets very into the card shouting "puppy" or "kitty" or whatever cute little animal is on the front - and white puppies are all "Woo-wie" Then he wants to know who sent him the card and he'll talk for the rest of the night about his mail and who it came from.

It's always the same conversation, be it Valentine's, Easter, Halloween - he doesn't care. He's not fooled by letters to 'Resident' or 'Occupant'. He knows when they're for him! It's gonna be a good week!
