Dear Campbell, I am so sorry it has taken me so long to write you. Life has been incredibly busy, but at least three times a day you do something and I think, “I really need to record what just happened.” You are constantly changing, growing, developing new habits, and getting older. It is simultaneously [...]

Dear Campbell, I love visiting your grandparents. I love seeing the unique relationship you are developing with each…the way you play with Grammie, the way you quietly sit on Grampa’s lap and show him your toys, the way you laugh at Mamabeth, and how you study and smile at Grandpa. I love seeing them too. [...]

Dear Campbell, It was a big weekend for you. You took your first real fall. I think we all cried together, but the past 48 hours have shown me that no real damage was done. You have been your normal, talkative, smiley self. Grammie and Grampa (I’ve decided that is how I am going to [...]

Dear Campbell, Tonight I made you cry on purpose for the first time. I wasn’t trying to scare you or hurt your feelings…I was just singing you a camp song. The song is “Little Green Frog” and to sing it you say “mmmm, ack” and stick your tongue out on the ack. I was doing [...]

Dear Campbell, Today was your first swim lesson. You were skeptical at first, but in the end you seemed to really enjoy it! On top of that, your daddy and I had a great time with you! In fact, Daddy was so excited about the swim lesson that he had a hard time sleeping last [...]
