on the event of my birthday, sent a jar of Oregon jam and Iowa's famous dilly beans. Otherwise known as the most delicous things on earth. He wrote as follows:
Tessa,
It's your twenty-fourth birthday
Happy Birthday my child. You are beautiful, charming, loving and kind. I'm so proud of you and your accomplishments over the years.
Eat the jam now, but don't even think about opening the dilly beans until Thanksgiving dinner or they will kill you like spinach.
I don't knw what to buy twentyfour year old girls so you wil have to shop for yourself.
Eat a slice for me and don't kiss no boys.
Thanks for being my child.
Love, Pa & Tammie.
They will kill you like spinach, btw! DDG. I love my dad.
