Dear H and O,

Your uncle Jim and his family gave us a garden bench that is the perfect size just for you! It was a gift to commemorate your arrival, Owen, and your new role as a big sister, Hayden. This afternoon you helped Dad put it together, Hayden! It’s really neat and I think you will have a lot of good chats on that bench as you grow up together.

Love you,
Mama

PS – Today we learned that you do not like the wind, Owen! As soon as it started to blow, you were very unhappy, which is extremely unusual for you!
