Dear Papi,
Hello! Thank you for picking me up from Lola and Barry's. I wish I could spend days with you and momma but will try to be brave because you have both told me I have to go there.
I also wanted to tell you that I am glad you are trying to stop smoking. I don't know what that is, but I hear it is a bad habit that is very hard to quit. I know momma is very proud of you for trying so hard, so I am proud too. She also told me that you had a test come back a little high, and that it was because you eat too much yummy food. I know that momma knows how to cook food that will help your test come back better this summer and that you should listen to her because she's really smart in that way. She wanted me to tell you that if we bought a house with a whiz-bang kitchen that she would cook you meals so great you wouldn't even know they were good for you! It will be hard for you to watch your diet, but (just like smoking) I am glad because that means you will be here for me longer! I want you to harrass my boyfriends and eventually walk me down the aisle at my wedding! Momma needs you around too.. she loves you very much, I can tell.
Well I should go take a nap now. I'm growing very much and that takes lots of energy! I am glad that I was born and that I am your baby. You love me very much, I can tell. And I love when you meow at me and make funny faces.
Be nice to momma... sometimes she's very tired from getting up early and getting me and her around then working all day. I try to let her sleep, but sometimes by 4 in the morning I am so hungry that I have to cry a little.
I love you very much, Avery Rose
