- turn a mad situation into a happy one by being sillyBrody is such a good reader and here is his birthday letter from Great Baba. He was so excited to get mail that was special just for him and one that he could read:
It's amazing how your little boy decides on his own that he is going to be a big boy and that all of the sudden in just one day he can master things because his mindset did. It's amazing what children can do when they decide they are grown up. There is more effort and determination for independence and I love seeing that growth in them. Not to mention that it makes my life easier the more independent they are.Today you helped me make cupcakes with orange frosting (your favorite color). Later that evening we bounced around at Bouncetown, then ate a slice of pizza (because that is what you wanted for your birthday dinner) and drove to Jon's fire station so he could spend a little time with you on your special day. When we got there we sang happy birthday to you, ate the cupcakes and opened your presents. The most special present that Jon gave you was his old Legos from when he was a kid. He hopes you will enjoy them as much as he did. We LOVE LOVE LOVE you so much and couldn't be more proud of you! Happy Birthday Big Man!
