Dear Spike:
We're in Salem, visiting with your Godmother, Katie, who in about six weeks will be having a baby of her own.
This afternoon we went to the bookstore so that you could help Katie, who is your mother's best friend, pick out some books for her son, including some of your favorites like "Goodnight Moon," "What's Wrong Little Pookie?," "Is Your Mama a Llama?," and "The Belly Button Book."
I'm not sure how often you'll get to see baby Aaron, but I hope that you will be friends. You'll be about one and a half years older than him, which means you can help him learn about all sorts of things — from good books to fun games to nifty ways to get into trouble.
Yes, I already know, the two of you will be plenty of trouble. After all, your mothers certainly are.
Love,
dad

And that trouble, that "stripieness" is what makes your mother and Katie so delightful, and will make you and Aaron equally delightful later on.
