Hello cutie pies. :)
You're both sleeping (yay!) and Mama was just finishing up some research so I thought I'd write to you before I go to bed. Daddy and I were just listening to the oral arguments of Fisher v. University of Texas on C-Span. Justice Sotomayor was asking lots of great questions of Fisher's counsel, always makes me so proud.
So let's see...what have the two of you been up to. I'll start with you, Mister O. You've been doing really well at school. We had a parent-teacher conference a few weeks ago and your teacher said that you were really sweet and nice to everyone and were doing well academically. Your teacher seems nice and you seem to be learning a lot. I just wish you could be in a hippie school and frolic around the countryside and pick fresh eggs from the chicken coop and knit your own sweater. We gotta move back to Western Mass! Anyhoo, I'm not complaining. You're very lucky to be at such a "good" school system. We were just hearing about all the problems in the Boston Public School system on the Melissa Harris-Perry show this morning.
What else...you're still your little crazy self. You like a certain girl in your school (she's a second grader!) and it's driving me crazy. You told me, "you know, Mama, ------- (girl) is prettier than you." "I want to marry --------." "I want to go on a date with --------" I don't even know where you get all this stuff from, maybe you've been watching too much tv or something. You also the other day started crying and said you were sad because one day you were going to be a grown up and you wouldn't see me anymore because you would have to go to work every day. Awww...my poor snookie. You won't be a grown up for a while, no worries!
Now on to mini-me, Ms. Salma Llama. Aww...I can't believe you're 10 months old already! You have 4 teeth now, the top two are taking their time coming out though. You are crawling around everywhere and stand up all by yourself but haven't started walking yet (thank God). You are so into eating. Your brother wasn't really into food until like last year, but not you. If you see someone eating you starting making your little sounds until someone gives you some. The other day you had pink eye so I took you to the doctor and you also ended up getting your shots and I never was in the room when O got his shots when he was a baby, but I was at the doctor's office by myself with you and it was so hard to hear you cry through all your shots. My poor snookie, you looked so sad. You're really into Mia Pia, the kitty cat. You're always wanting to pet her but I'm scared that she'll scratch you. You're also really into climbing up and down the stairs.
I love you my babies, sorry I'm not around as much as I used to be. I miss you!
Mama
