Dear Jerm,

Well it’s Thursday about 4:30 pm. Just about done for the day. I’m listening to Joseph and Scarecrow arguing about driving carts off curbs, haha. Well Mike is on the road, he’s on the way to Chicago and gonna spend the night in Spokane. So now he is finally making a living. Yeah! Grandma said last night that I get you guys gone and get 2 more, like she is making a joke haha. I need to find Bear a bigger bed. His head and feet touch the ends pretty much. So someone will leave one behind. =). Usually works that way. He just needs a regular crib size. What he has now is a portable crib so its smaller that normal. Dillon had one when he was a baby and Shirley was living in the 35’ trailer. Remember that? I think he used it long enough that he went to a twin bed after that. They need better bedding too. They don’t seem to have sheets or real blankets and they need enough so it can be changed if they soak the bed. In a couple of weeks I’m going to take Bears bottle away. =). I don’t want his teeth to rot out from sleeping with a bottle in his mouth. He will cry the first couple of nights a little then forget about it. I’ll do it over the weekend. So I can nap. Lol. Once he is off the bottle we can work on potty training. Hard to potty train when he is constantly taking in fluids. I had a pretty busy day today. I finished up in D101 and turned P206. It was an eviction but not too bad. I had to go back and fix something in another unit. Water was leaking under the sink. Tonight I pick up the boys for the first time at Ann’s. I hope that goes fast cause it can be hard to find a place to park close by. I’m sitting at the compactor while I’m writing this letter. I just watched someone drop their phone as they were bringing they bag back. =). I’m mean to laugh. Well sorry this letter is so short. I had a late start on it. I love you and miss you bunches.

Love mom.
