Dear Harrison, Where to begin? Well, let’s start with the obvious. You’re ONE! Happy Birthday! You are such a little boy! You love trucks and cars and tools and trains but, also babies and kitties and puppies… you are all boy, but, have a sweetness that is undeniable. You go from crashing your trucks together [...]
Dear Harrison, Happy .75 birthday! This is a biggie. 9 months! You have now been moving around on this earth for about the same amount of time OUTSIDE, with all of us air-breathers, as you were INSIDE my belly. The last nine months seem to have flown by but, at the same time because so [...]
Happy .66-Birthday! No big, long letter, as they are a total pain in the ass. We going for quarterly newsletters now. Look for the next installment of your momma racking her brains to remember what your recent accomplishments are – next month. In short, you are totally freaking awesome! You are 99% happy (when you [...]
Dear Harrison, Son, I’m sorry – this is the first of what is sure to be many of apologies for missed deadlines with you. And I could beat myself up for it, but, I’m not going to. I started writing a letter to you at six months, but, honestly I had a hard time keeping [...]

Dear Harrison, I really don’t want to jinx this, but, you are an AWESOME baby! This month you solidified your place in the all-pro baby hall of fame for sleeping, eating, cooing and giggling. Quite an accomplishment for one so small. The credit for the sleeping-through-the-night-since-you-were-six-weeks-old (technically, “through the night” for a six week old [...]
Dear Harrison, You’re sitting on your pop’s lap right now, while he tries to finish up work on the computer. You are content to sit and watch him work – following the moving objects and lit up screen. Your dad’s legs are naturally shaky making for the perfect baby-bouncer. We’re a little concerned with how [...]
Dear Harrison, We’re two months in and I think you’re beginning to like it here. You started this month by starting to smile. You had been smiling in your sleep and when the synapses were firing in that little brain of yours, but, an actual smile as a reaction to us… that is an outstanding [...]
Dear Harrison, Hey kid! Welcome to the world! You made it! So, this is life. You’ll dig it here, as soon as you can – you know – see things and hold your head up to look around. It’s filled with all kinds of great things like fresh cut grass, music, bike rides, sandboxes and [...]
