Makes My Monday

On Joseph's last "special day" Cort was in Dallas on business. During lunch, he wanted to use my blackberry to send an email to Cort. This exchange followed:

Joe: I hope you have a great time in dallas

Cort: Thanks Joe!!! Hope you are having a great special day with mommy. I love you very very much.

It's a simple email exchange, but I love it. He's five, and he can communicate by email - a medium I did not use until I had graduated from law school. And he can initiate a grammatically correct, adult-quality email "conversation" -- without even a spelling error (OK, so he didn't capitalize Dallas, but still). In fact, comparing the two, Cort's response seems more "child-speak" than Joe's statement. He's just growing up, and although I'm going to miss it when he's not little anymore, seeing him grow up still makes my Monday.
