Hello my beautiful big boy,

We had a wonderful easter, of which you haven't even gotten halfway through all the chocolates and easter eggs you received. Between Ouma, Granny and Aunt Lynette I think a conspiracy was formed because we have a whole fridge full of Easter goodies! They just don't want me to sleep at night, lol. But we had a wonderful long weekend with me and dad taking you and your brother absolutely all over. We didn't go away, so made up for it by keeping really busy, ha-ha. We went to visit my cousin Amelle, went to the cheese farm in Hartebeespoort dam, took long drives into nowhere, had a braai at Ivan's and had breakfast with Ohpaw, among other things.

Then this weekend was family time! Granny and granny Grey came up on Thursday and Aunt Lynette, Uncle Grant, Tanya and Candice (dad's cousins) came on Friday. What a fun weekend and you mister, got spoiled rotten! You were so happy to have all the people around you and constantly showed off your vocabulary. You got so many clothes and sweets from gran and Aunt Lynette, and you even got to pick your own clothes when you went shopping! Thank you very very much! Unfortunately, being a typical 2 year old, you had to show them what a tantrum is supposed to be and on Saturday night 01h00, threw your worst one ever. You woke up, asked granny for sweeties to which she obviously responded "no" (in a much nicer way than your mom would've my angel) and then it all came apart. Dad and I were ready to put you in a cold shower just to calm you down! Luckily it stopped after about 30 minutes (which felt like days!!!) of hair-raising screaming! So unfortunately you had to go on a detox on Sunday and didn't have any sweets again...One day you'll understand, lol.

Anyway, just want to say thank you so much to Wes's family for coming to visit, it was wonderful having you all here and thank you for spoiling our boys so much! And a big thank you as well to all the girls from granny's embroidery club for Caden and Noah's presents, we appreciate it very much!

Till next time my precious.
Mom

Dearest Caden
Thank you so much for making our weekend so memorable. What a wonderful time we had with you, Noah and your parents. As for your vocabulary, as auntie Nettie says 2 going on 6. I really miss our 05h30 reading session in the morning when you open your eyes and say "Gwanny lees" and then when I take the red book you say "Eric tamer" which is the really "Eric the Lion tamer". Tell Ouma Rina and uncle Koevoet we also say a very big thank you for that lovely braai we had on Sunday. It was enjoyed by all. Well my precious pie, you must enjoy school, play nicely with Noah and be a good boy.
Love you lots, plenty of hugs and kisses
Gwanny
