5 years, 10 months.

Dear Holly,

I know this can’t be the first time I’ve mentioned this, because it seems so familiar. But when you and Nonna are together, the two of you have a tradition of doing coloring books.

This past weekend while your brother and Papa were outside catching crawdads, you and Nonna spent the same amount of time inside coloring.

It is quite on common in the morning before school, like today, you will announce to me: “Daddy, I am going upstairs to work on my pictures.”

You’re really good about taking it upon yourself to enroll in quiet and creative activities!

Love,

Daddy
