dear gage

hey there gage. sorry it's been so long since i've written to you! i
keep getting pictures as i'm here on the mission, and you are huge! i
was bummed to have missed getting to see you on Christmas but i just
figure, that will make it even more of a surprise to see you here in
3 or so months.

you know...you are a pretty special kid. a little miracle baby. you
overcame the struggles given to you at birth and you were sent down by
a loving Heavenly Father to be a loving older brother. i'm sure you
don't really quite understand what that entails, but you will, and
you'll do great. i haven't seen, talked, or held you in a long time,
but i remember what it was like when i was there. i remember you
falling asleep in my arms and you just loving everyone. i get letters
from your mom often and she continues to tell me what a little love
bug you are. i know you will be a wonderful older brother. if you can
wear facial hair like you did on Halloween at only 2 years old...you
will leader unlike any other! i'm so grateful for you! and i hope you
continue to get yourself ready to run and to wrestle, because Aunt
Steffie hasn't done that it a LONG time, and that means you're going
to get the blunt of it!!! haha. love you kid,

Aunt Steffie/Sister Wright
