Dear Mom,

You know I love you, right? Well, I wanted to share a secret with you. You know that saying, "You learn something new every day"? It's true!

I found out that if I stick my finger in Kaysen's mouth so he can suck on it, he will get sick too.

I found out that just because I can climb up a short ladder doesn't mean I can climb down by myself.

I now know that bubbles on a wand don't taste very good.

I found out that when you leave the room to brush Ember's teeth after giving me Cream of Wheat, I can make a big (but silent) mess.

I now know what your shocked face looks like. Have I seen that one before? Hmm, can't remember...

I now know that Cream of Wheat is not so easy to get off a two year old, the walls, the floor and a highchair. I even had it in my hair for extra credit.

I now know that somehow you had the patience to do that, and then feed me something else for breakfast (and clean me up again).

Mom, I love you! Just think, in two more years you will be having this same kind of fun with Kaysen and I will know everything!

Love,

Owen
