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

Dear Wesley,
You had such a fun time at the park today. You got so dirty, which translated to me getting so dirty. By the time we went home the dirt had all fallen off of you, but I looked like I had been rolling in the mud. You played and played and played. You wanted to play softball with the adults so bad. I let you play ball with the little kids instead. You decided that was just as good. You went down the slide over and over. You have gotten really good at climbing the slide stairs. Dad and I don't even have to stand by you anymore.
You get to start school in a week and a day. I am so excited for you. You get to ride the bus (with a harness to keep you in your seat) with Skyler. He is very excited to sit by you and help you. Today Skyler told you during FHE that he likes to help you with chores.
You were very grumpy when I woke you up from your nap today. I have never seen you that grumpy. You didn't want to wake up, and when you finally did you were very cross and had a scowl on your face. I thought it was funny. All you wanted for dinner was bread. That is your favorite food.
You sure know how to make people smile. Everyone that meets you loves you. It is so fun.
I love you,
Mom

Dear Wesley,
Today you thought it would be fun to dump a whole box of Cheerios on the floor. This is the second time in a week and a half. I salvaged some of it today, but most if it ended up in the garbage. I had to remind myself not to "cry over spilled [Cheerios]." You sure love to make messes. But you also like to clean them up.
Skyler built a fort this morning, but you still haven't figured out what forts are all about. You kept trying to climb on top of it. Skyler was kind and let you crush it all down before you ate breakfast. You liked that a lot.
We get to spend the evening and morning alone together. Daddy and Skyler are going camping, so we are having a mom and Wes night. I think it will be fun. We don't get much alone time any more. But that will change when school starts in a couple of weeks.
You get to start school in about two and a half weeks. I am so excited for you. I think you are going to love it. Miss Melissa already loves you, and I think you will love her back. I am anxious to see how you respond to and progress in preschool. I think you will be a great student.
I love you!
Love,
Mom
