SamTalk

Below is our conversation tonight as we were playing with Sam and his toy cash register money. I was explaining that a $20 bill is worth a lot more than a $1 bill.

Me: So, it would be a lot more fun to find a $20 bill in a parking lot because it would be like finding 20 one dollar bills.

Peter: But, of course, no matter how much we find, we'd turn it into the police department because that's the right thing to do.

Sam: No, I would keep it because I'm a pirate.

Wolfy

Sam accidently left his favorite "cuddle" at Grandma Kim and Grandpa Roy's house today. He was very upset. He got "Wolfy" on our trip to the Great Wolf Lodge a few weeks back, and they have been inseparable. Luckily, Grandma and Grandpa have been taking good care of him. Wolfy sent this email (and attached pictures) to Sam this evening:

Dear Sam,

I am at Grandpa Roy's and Grandma Kim's house. I miss you but I am having a good time. Grandma made chocolate chip cookies for us. I saved one for Charlie and you. I had mine with milk. It was good. Then Grandma read me a story. I had to take a nap and grandma put a diaper on me. I got to sleep in the porch just like you and Charlie did last night. Grandma said I will be able to see you soon. I didn't cry. When I woke up Grandpa took me for a ride on the tractor. It was fun. Then we played hide and seek. Grandpa had a hard time finding me. I am sending you pictures of me so you won't miss me too much. I love you.
