Dear A,

Would you care

if we gave some of your hair

to a bear?

Is it fair

to share

your hair

with a bear?

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Sister, and Brother

Dear A,

Shoes go clump.

When you sit, don’t slump.

Trash goes to the dump.

Fallen trees leave a stump.

If you fall you get a bump,

so it’s better just to jump.

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Sister, and Brother

Dear A,

What would you do

if you woke up and you

were in Kalamazoo

with only one shoe?

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Sister, and Brother

Dear A,

You took an early bath

because you did the math:

Ready for bed early = 

videos, surely.

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Sister, and Brother

Dear A,

Roses are red

Violets are blue

Rhyming is hard

Have a good lunch.

Love, Daddy, Mommy, Brother, and Sister

Dear A,

You saw a machine

that will make a toy

that you created.

How cool – oh boy!

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Brother, and Sister

Dear A,

Now we’re dreamin’

of going back on ‘Screamin’.

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Sister, and Brother

Dear A,

A desk where you can write.

A chair where you can read.

New furniture last night.

How nice, indeed.

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Brother, and Sister

Dear A,

So much rain. Everything is wet.

Wonder how much more we’ll get.

No need for worry, no need for gloom.

This will make the flowers bloom.

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Sister, and Brother

Dear A,

Videos? On a Tuesday?

What is Mommy thinking?

Is it also a no-shoes day?

Or a day for extra blinking?

Or upside-down snooze day?

Or for no-bath stinking?

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Sister, and Brother
