Eight months or so ago Cami asked me to draw her a picture of something. \u00a0She is really artsy and wanted me to draw a picture and she would draw her own version while looking at the one I drew. \u00a0We talked about what to draw and decided on Joe Mauer catching. \u00a0I wish I still had a picture of it because I thought it was a pretty good representation of Joe catching. \u00a0Anyway, she had it a couple days and came up to me with it and begged me to send it to him. \u00a0I told her I would not and she should keep it. \u00a0She insisted so I caved. \u00a0She wrote a little note that said “Joe, you are my favorite player. blah blah blah.” \u00a0(Sorry Jason<\/a>, out of sight out of mind I guess!). \u00a0I do not remember the exact note but you get the idea. \u00a0I dropped the note in the mail in care of the Twins just to get her to quit bugging me about it.<\/p>\n

You would never believe what showed up today. \u00a0Yep! \u00a0An envelope address to Cami from J Mauer! \u00a0I got the mail and was smiling from ear to ear as I showed Amy the envelope. \u00a0I walked into the house and could tell Cami was tired from getting up early this morning for her softball game (they won) and after getting to bed late last night after her dance recital. \u00a0I told her she got some mail and handed her the envelope. \u00a0She saw it was typed to her from J Mauer. \u00a0She smiled. \u00a0I asked her if she remembered the drawing of Joe she made and mailed to him a while ago. \u00a0She did and opened the envelope. \u00a0Inside was a postcard and the back was a typed note. \u00a0It was VERY specific to thanking her for the picture she drew and how he liked it. \u00a0It was signed ‘Joe’. \u00a0Don’t know if it was really signed by him or not but it really did not matter. \u00a0In Cami’s eyes it was the coolest thing in the world. \u00a0She got mail from Joe Mauer! \u00a0Joe Mauer got her drawing and note! \u00a0She always cheers a little louder for Joe when he comes to the plate than she does for the others. \u00a0I have a feeling the next time will be a little bit louder and sweeter! \u00a0It was even mailed on their postage as we did not send an sase or anything. \u00a0“Well played Mauer!”<\/p>\n

Thanks Joe for making Cami’s day!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
