Dear Jack,
After being out all day, we came home to see a toilet sitting on our front porch. No, I was not one bit curious as to why:
Obviously, it had something to do with your friends putting it there.
So Mommy had you recruit a friend to help you return it to wherever it mysteriously came from.
I still really don’t know the story of the potty on our porch. Oh well.
Love,

Dear Jack,
For our recent Spring Break vacation to Georgia, for your souvenir, you were drawn to a steel tongue drum… of all things!
And since you have brought it home, you have been researching to learn to play songs you like… including “The Scientist” by Coldplay.
I love it that you are showing an interest in playing a musical instrument… even if it’s not a guitar like I play.
Love,
Daddy

Dear Holly,
There are certain things you will only learn from me, as your dad. However, the importance of getting a pedicure is not one of them.
That’s Mommy’s job. Last Saturday morning, the two of you enjoyed getting your pedicures, side by side.
Mommy offered to let me get one too, but… I was happy just to be the driver.
Love,
Daddy

Dear Holly,
It never crossed my mind that you would actually enjoy going to the Supercross off-road motorcyle race our family went to last weekend in Birmingham.
I assumed it was just you having to go along with it because your brother is so into it. But to my surprise, you specifically told Mommy and I that you liked being there.
So I guess that helps, knowing our family will start going to Supercross more regularly moving forward.
Love,
Daddy

Dear Jack,
For half of your life, my vehicle has been my 2 door 2010 Jeep Wrangler. But as of this past weekend, the time was right (and probably overdue) for me to trade it in for a newer, 4 door 2022 version instead.
Obviously, our family is so excited and appreciative to move up and upgrade. But I will say, there’s definitely a solid bit of sadness in saying goodbye to the old Jeep.
I wish I wasn’t so emotional about it. But there’s no denying, so many memories are attached to it. So I know it’s normal to feel this way.
Here’s to the new Jeep and to new memories to be made as a family. I mean, seriously… this new Jeep is pretty awesome. There’s just no way around it!
Love,
Daddy
