Your 15 month old son...

Dear FutureMe, Don't forget the cute things that Soren is doing. How he pounds his little fists in frustration when you pull him away from the busy street. How he pulls up his shirt, points to his belly and says "beh buh?". How he insists on pulling off his socks and bib the minute you put them on. How he tries to push his bottle into your mouth and makes slurping noises to try to get you...

Dear FutureMe, Well, well here you are writing to yourself. Is the sun still shining and are the seasons the same in Nebraska? I hope that you have the happiness in your soul that you were given as a gift from your teachings from the universe in 1993.
