Dear Jack,
No way has it been 6 months. We just brought you home. Next thing you know we will be planning your first birthday party. I am so proud of you and love watching your personality develop. You have the cutest little smirk these days...it's like you know how cute you are! We have so much fun together and I miss you like crazy when we aren't together. I've always been a bit of a scrooge during the holidays...until this year! I can't wait to celebrate this special season with you and create new family traditions for our little family of 3...plus Tuck! I love you so much Little Jackamus.
