As part of his first grade learning program, our 6-year-old grandson Cole had to write a letter to someone. I am happy — so happy — that he chose me. The letter arrived yesterday. The letter itself was sweet. He asked me how my trip to Arizona was going, and told me he had a good Valentine’s Day. Nice to hear, though I’m pretty sure he meant Thanksgiving. But what made me smile was the envelope. Outside of the envelope, he unabashedly proclaimed his love of his Nana Kris…..

I particularly loved how his hearts began to morph into what appears to me to be ice cream cones. Now, that’s real love.

I love you too Cole.
