Dear Wesley,

Today you locked Skyler and me out of the house. This was actually the second time you locked me out of the house, but last time I was smart and took my keys. We went out to pick some tomatoes, and when we came back the dead bolt on the front door was locked (or as locked as it can get, but still locked enough to keep the door closed). Skyler started to panic. We said a little prayer and tried to convince you through the door that you needed to unlock the door. You just played with the handle. After talking to you for a while I decided to call dad and see if he could hurry home. Jim didn't answer his door, so Skyler and I went to Nancy and Charlie's house (I couldn't convince him to stay at the door and talk to you). We knocked and knocked. Nancy finally came to the door with her hair in rollers. She had been in the bath. We called dad three times, but he never answered. When we got back we talked to you more and you eventually unlocked the door. We were so happy! Later at dinner I realized that I had left the back door unlocked earlier in the day, so we could have gotten in the whole time. Oops!

You finally had a good day at school last Thursday. After three bad days we had success! You had a couple of bananas and some juice for lunch, which was a huge breakthrough. Your teachers said you did so well the whole day. I am so proud of you! I hope you can keep up the good work!

I sure love you! Ever since you started school you have been very snuggly with me. You always want to be right by me, most of the time snuggled right up to me. You give me lots and lots of kisses, which I don't even ask for. I decided yesterday that you are full of the love of Christ, aka charity. I think that is one of your talents from Heavenly Father.

We talked about talents for family home evening tonight and we decided that you have a talent for laughing. You love to laugh and your laughter is very contagious. I am so happy to have you in my family!

Love,
Mom
