Helping John

Dear Elijah,

Last night you were a wonderful helper.   John was out trying to fix the water leak on the side of the house.  You wanted to be out there with him watching.  So Nonna dressed you in your warm coat and you got to watch and help a little bit.

Papa came in and said that you had gotten your hands dirty and were afraid to show me.  I laughed and said .... What a good little boy, he must be a great helper.   You learned tonight that Nonna doesn't get mad if you are doing something that gets you dirty.  It's no big deal.  Especially when you are being watched by Papa John.  

Once you came in we had to not only wash your hands, but Nonna had to cut your finger nails too because you had so much grease under your nails (just like papa).  

You had such a fun night being a boy and getting dirty.   We also love how curious you are to learn about everything.
