Sick Days

Dear Sawyer,

This month, you:

-were in such awe when Daddy bought you a new toy bus. Your whole face lit up when you saw it!

-learned how to imitate elephant and monkey sounds.

-saw snow through the window after we had a big storm and shouted excitedly, "Noooooooooo!" (like JieJie when she was younger, you currently have a slight issue with pronouncing your s's, heh).

-often try to sing along when I sing to you.

-have started running to Daddy's office and GuhGaw and JieJie's rooms to look for them after they've left for work and school. When you go into each room and call out for them and I tell you that they're not home, you say matter-of-factly, "Oh."

-started calling your nanny Mary "Mimi."

-learned how to say biiiiiiiiye (bye), nigh nigh (night night) and num num (you say this for cat--I think you are trying to say meow meow?).

-came down with pink eye, an ear infection AND scarlet fever at the SAME TIME. JieJie had scarlet fever last week, so you caught that from her, but then you got walloped with the other two illnesses this week, too. I'm so sorry, sweetie. It's not going to be a fun weekend :-(

Love,
Mom
