One, Two, What's a Shoe?

Dear Tante and Oma,

I have TWO teeth now! But that doesn’t make me want to eat the salmon Mama gave me last night.

I have ONE finger. Mama calls it Mr. Pointer. I like to use it to point, fiddle, flip, and hook Mama’s lip like a fish and rrreeeeeeell her in!

I have ONE sister. She is sick, and so am I. I have a runny nose. Yesterday it was just ONE nostril, but now it is TWO. I blow raspberries and make spit bubbles so everything mixes around into one big mess and it’s lots of fun and all good!

I had ONE lunch and Sabrina fed me some of her yo-grit. I like yo-grit! It was GREEK yo-grit. Are all GREEK things this good?

Mama got ONE Book of Mormon yesterday. She says she really likes the lady who gave it to her, so she’s going to look at it in the best possible light. She’s using it as a coaster.

Mama slept with TWO little girls last night. ONE little girl cried a lot, and it wasn’t me! ONE Daddy went and slept in the guest room. He was in charge of going to get milk and diapers and other things when Mama called him.

ONE Sabrina is very hot, except when she eats her grape med-ne-zen. I don’t want to sleep by her. During the night Mama told Big Sisser Wisser that she had a fever and needed some medicine. She said, “I DON’T need med-ne-zen, Mama. I’m not so sick as you get.”

Love,
Sickie Linnie
