Little J,
Here is a picture of me in New Orleans. I had a great time but I sure missed your mom and dad. But since your arrival…they would only have worried about you, so it’s just as well they stayed home! But New Orleans is a place we definitely need to go! There is lots of history there and we need to go to the swamp to see the alligators! You are perfect just as you are but I can’t wait until you are old enough to travel and see some of these fabulous things! In the meantime…just keep eating and sleeping and growing strong!
Love, Auntie JJ

Little J,
I'm so happy that you feel safe and comfy in your crib! There is nothing in the world like your own bed...even if you have to share it with dogs and cats! I think one of the best things that you have brought to your parents is the ability to "not make the bed"! DO YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS TO PARENTS LIKE YOURS? They are neatniks...especially compared to me...but since you arrived, I'm sure the bed has gone unmade, dishes have not been done, clutter exists...it's wonderful! One day you'll ask your dad why your garage isn't as cool as my garage...which is a huge mess! (But it's very fun to explore!) He may go ballistic...but not for long. He loves you so he'd even tolerate a MESS!!!
I'm so glad you like your onsies! I guy has to make a political statement even if he's only a month old! And don't think the Beatles are over the hill! The Grammy's were on last night and, HELLO, Paul McCartney was one of the nominees! By the time you're a teenager, the Beatles will have gone through their 4th Renaissance! And speaking of Renaissance...I have one word for you...Italy! We're so there!
More later little Dude!
Peace out.

A Rainy Sunday
Little J,
It’s a rainy Sunday afternoon. Sophie, Jack, Tessie, Tallulah and Riley are all inside nice and comfy…sleeping the day away. I’m sure you are at your house sleeping…eating…sleeping…eating and settling into your new life. It’s strange that I’m not on the edge of my seat, where I’ve been for so long wishing and hoping that your parents find you and bring you home… and all is well. All is well is a strange feeling! I’m not used to it. Of course there is always something to stress about…but it seems that my thoughts have been so tied up in you for so long that I’m missing worrying about it a little bit. Not that I want to worry about it…but you need to know that you have been on so many other peoples minds in addition to your parents, for so long, we’re just not used to being free from the job of willing you here. I’m sure your parents have dreamed about this kind of day for so long…just hanging out at home with you, as a family, just being. How simply perfect is that!
I saw my dad for the last time a year ago this week. He was in the hospital. A place he didn’t want to be. I wonder if he knew it was the last time we’d see each other. I stayed as long as I could. In fact I couldn’t fill the rental car with gas so they charged me $89 when I returned it. Oh well. I’d pay $89 again to have another hour with my dad. No matter how old you get, you always want your parents by your side. I know mine are with me in spirit but it sure would be nice to really see them again. So hold tight while you can little one. Time flies in a blink of an eye!
Love,
Auntie JJ

YIPEE!
Jaiden,
I knew you could do it little buddy. You made your parents dreams come true! You did it. Through years of searching and many miles of travel, you just kept putting up those walls until you could make yourself known to them. 2/3/09 will be the first real day they can breath freely! Hallelujah!
Now we can get down to the important stuff! What color do you want your room!
Love,
Auntie JJ
