Love letters are long gone

Love notes are a thing of the past. Today`s one and only exchange between me 
and my love went like this:

If my memory serves me right, Seb's book report is due tomorrow. Can you 
follow through tonight if you haven't already? 
 
Thx and XO

We've been working on it bit by bit thru the week, and literally seconds ago 
he just finished it. It's been a pretty positive experience. He was pretty 
intimidated at first by it, but then he initiated a good goal-setting plan 
(breaking it down to 3 achievable bits to do over 3 days). Had a bit of a 
hiccup when he concluded the book he'd chosen was not one he'd read recently 
enough to recall, chose another one. Did a draft, with quite good spelling, 
finished last night. I went over it with him tonight, prompting him for 
spelling corrections, and he copied it out almost flawlessly, and fixed the 
little problems (both about word spacing) without getting overwrought. 
 
 
Couldn`t love either of them more!
