two important things about today.
one you'll learn to care about,
and the other,
you must care about or we can't be friends.
1. today is dr. seuss' birthday. you'll learn to love this man in time. he's the greatest children's book author of all time (in my opinion and many others!) and you'll probably have all his books before you're even born.
you'll count and rhyme and learn colors and numbers and go on all kinds of adventures with the seuss. you'll even watch movies from his books and maybe one day i'll teach you to laugh like the grinch.
2. today is also texas independence day. march 2, 1836. i'm a texan through and through. don't cry because you're not. we can't all be texans but we can all love texas. uncle T and i will teach you to root for the cowboys and love rangers baseball (you can eat ice cream out of a plastic baseball helmet for goodness sakes!). we'll also buy you some cowboy boots and a hat. when you're ready. and if i can ever get your mother to travel with me, we'll go to texas.
you'll love it down there. except when it's hot. well, it's always hot. but when it's HOT we won't be there. you can borrow my pat green cd any time you like and i'll read you all the books i own (10) about GWB. if i have anything to do with it, you'll have an undying love for him, just like your aunt ash. and you have to say y'all. it's the most important thing a texan does.
love,
ash
