Click here for a pdf of a letter that Grandma and Grandpa sent to PJ at the end of July.
On August 28th during PJ's bath I left the room and several minutes later PJ came out totally naked and totally dry. This was perplexing since the towels were out of his reach. When queried as to how he dried himself he took me to the bathroom and demonstrated his "rolling on the bathmat" technique.
On September 20th MeiMei asked for "juice more."
On September 28th the insulation for the addition was installed and the workers brought in 122 sheets of drywall, all of it 5/8" thick, some sheets 12 feet long. What does this have to do with PJ and MeiMei?
On October 4th PJ said to Mama, "I don't like you. You're always telling me no."
On October 11th, PJ and Mama had the following exchange:
     PJ: "MeiMei is a menace, right Mama?"
     Mama: "Yes, but you were also a menace at this age."
     PJ: "Yeah, that's right, but now I'm taller."
On November 4th PJ said, ""Jenny, can we bake cookies and have a tea party?" Not unexpectedly, both events occurred soon thereafter.
