My dearest Joey,
Wow! What a cool kid you are!! You just visited us here in Playa for 10 days. What a whirlwind - a GOOD whirlwind! I honestly don't know where May went. It sped by sooo fast!!
You are happy, so happy! You are smart, so smart! You are funny, sooo funny! You are so darn cute to boot! But everyone says that of you.
You love the beach! The first day we went, you sat at the water's edge with me and every time a wave would lap us, you would laugh. It was so much fun! And then there was the swimming pool. The first day you learned to jump in the water and loved it so much that you exhausted me. I am such a nervous nelly with you so I couldn't just sit and relax while watching you. You really are like your mom - you took to water like a duck does. At Akumal, you learned to float on your back all by yourself! I believe a video was taken of that.
One day, your mom went on a tour with Auntie Carrie and I was your babysitter - how lucky I was. We had such a super day! One of my favorite times with you was when everyone went out one night and we got ready for bed and watched, men, men, men, oooh, oooh! You were so cuddly and cute. You are so easy to put to bed. I know that is because your mom and dad have set up a great routine for you. I am most impressed as that was one of the hardest things for me as a mother - putting you and Uncle Bobby to bed! Thanks to Grandpa, I soon learned how to do it easier! Your mom is one smart cookie!!!
I am also so impressed with your power of concentration for a 20 month old! One day we decided to watch the finale of Survivor and your mom gave you her iphone and you sat in one place for close to an hour playing this game. Being a teacher, let me tell you, that is amazing for your age!!!
We all had a talk and it was decided that we would come there for Christmas!!!! I am so excited. This time, however, I am going to sit back and watch a lot more instead of doing! I know it will be okay with your mom because she has dad to help!!! I think your mom will be shocked at Gamgam sitting so much! Haha! Can't wait!
We love you very much Joey! Will write again soon.
