Dear A,

Now Brother has a play house too.

Maybe he should paint it blue.

And get a cow so it can moo.

I think that’s fun, do you?

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Brother, and Sister

Dear A,

Yesterday you made a house,

the perfect size for a little mouse.

It has a couch and a TV

and 3 levels that you can see.

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Sister, and Brother

Dear A,

I’m too tired to think of a rhyme.

Sorry. Maybe next time.

(But only if you give me a dime.)

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Brother, and Sister

Dear A,

Not one birthday party, but two!

We had so much to do.

So much playing and fun

at two parties, not one.

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Brother, and Sister

Dear A,

I love my crown.

I’ll wear it all over town.

My wand is great.

I’ll take it to every state.

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Sister, and Brother

Dear A,

You sure have been busy making things.

Next can you make me a pair of wings?

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Brother, and Sister

Dear A,

With paper you drew

a costume to wear.

Maybe next you can do

one for Mom if you dare!

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Sister, and Brother

Dear A,

Today you’ll buy your lunch that’s hot

and you’ll learn all that you’re taught.

Wow, you will do a whole lot.

That’s a big day, is it not?

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Sister, and Brother

Dear A,

You did great at the doctor – 

so great, I think it shocked her.

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Brother, and Sister

Dear A,

Here is a picture of a tree.

I drew it just for you, you see?

Love, Mommy, Daddy, Sister, and Brother
