Little Kai, you are just my little love bug. You adore your sister. Every morning, the first thing you say is, “River! See!” You shimmy out of bed and hunt through the house until you find her. “Riv, hugs!” you say. You love your family and you are happiest when we are all together.

Little ones, when you are being mischievous I call you my monkeys! Of course you interpret this as a signal to continue whatever you are doing with increased enthusiasm. To encourage me to tickle and chase you, Kai says, “Eee, eee!” and signs scratching under his arms, while River giggles, “I’m a monkey baby!”

There is nothing you two love more than being naked, sun, rain or snow (I apologize in advance to your 13 year old selves, who will be mortified your Ma wrote this). Getting you dressed in the morning is a process. After breakfast, you both strip off your PJ’s and run around the living room and dining room, giggling. River trills out, “We’re running in the nude! We are naked babies!” Kai flaps his arms and hollers, “Nud, nud!” Your father and I follow you around with socks and shirts in the valiant, often fruitless hope that you can be persuaded clothing is necessary. Bless your sweetness and innocence.
