She reacted exactly the same we I do when I get a bank statement and it doesn't match. But she wasn't happy when she saw the extra fictitious $400 in the account like I would be in real life.

For art, they both made mailboxes that they put on their doors and one on our door. We've been writing letters to each other all day. They love it.
