Dear Paul,
Have you had to write 09 yet for the year? I have. This is the second note because I accidentally wrote 08 the first time.

Hope you are having a great day at school today! Can you believe it is already Thursday? Soon you can play with the humidifier all day. :) How foggy it will be!

Dear Paul,
Happy Friday! It's almost time for a 3-day weekend. We get Monday off because it is Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday*. Have you learned about him yet?
Love,
Mom
*i was not about to explain -- in a lunchtime note, no less -- the notion of a birthday being "observed" on a day different from the actual birthday.

Dear Paul,
I had a great time with you yesterday! We should spend more mommy-Paul time. I really liked working on the dinosaur book with you. More teamwork! :)
Love,
Mommy
