You notice he pronounces the "d" as a "b", because he uses in again in "Badae". Verra cute.

I found a similar note (along with the envelope) among my late aunt's belongings that I'd sent her when I was five. I didn't actually say anything, other than writing my name, my brothers' names, and addressing it to her and my grandfather (along with the word "Avenue" in my mother's handwriting, no doubt to show me how it was spelled). There's also a picture of a face. Sadly, my artistic ability never got any better.

Thank you! He's so big and cute and sassy... Today, for the first time, he took a pen and tried to write on the walls. Oh joy.

We could call her "Woody".
