Hi Fred,

Hi Karen,
Beau loves going to your book launches. He discusses them every chance he gets (usually when buying books, to the seller).
We went through his dress-ups this afternoon in anticipation of the Big Day. As you know Beau was meant to be with his father that weekend which makes the opportunity even more special. Fortunately his Dad agreed to swap weekends.
Looking forward to seeing you there.

Hi Tammy,
Thanks so much for posting this.
You really touched my heart with Beau’s words and enthusiasm. I’m going to make it the best launch yet. Can’t wait to see you both there.
