Post Office Visits!



Who doesn't love getting mail???

Okay let's be honest, bills aren't fun, but getting "good" mail, such as letters, cards, and finding packages, that's the fun stuff! To Thomas however, mail is mail, and is something in which brings him pure joy and excitement :) Every day Thomas will ask to check the mail, anticipating another VHS tape, of course! However, when he gets the mail out of the box, on days in which there is no package to be found, he pulls out the bills and envelopes out, calling them "letters!" (If only, they were all letters ) As well as greeting everyone in the post office and stating his mail box number, pointing to his head, and saying "remember!" This is partly, because I made a point to teach him the mail box number, since we've had to recite it back to the post masters, and in part of teaching him our address! 

Thomas loves the mail so much, I have even contemplated becoming a mail lady, one who drives around putting people's mail in their boxes! He would have to be my sidekick and ride along partner, grinning from ear to ear! 

Thomas also checks the mail at his high school, it's part of his weekly activity and job, teaching him responsibility and social skills! Plus he gets to chat with the entire office, get out of class, and stroll down the hallways :) 

My goal for Thomas, is to one day bike to the post office to check the mail! When that day happens, trust me, there will be a post about it!!! (with pride and joy...of course!)
