Dear Drew,

You helped me to make the cutest placecards for our Thanksgiving table next week.  I love that you love to help and take pride in your work.  I look forward to eating glitter in my mashed potatoes. 

Love,
Mommy

Dear Bass Pro Shop,

We call you "The Fish Store" because that's easier to say when you're only two.  We're lucky that you're just right down the street from us and we can visit you about once a month to look at all the neat fish and things you have BUT when we went on October 27th and saw you were all decked out for Christmas, we kind of thought you were insane.  Get a grip next year and at least wait until Halloween, ok? 

Fondly,

The Peters Family

Dear Caramel Brulee Latte,

Why, helllooooo there.  I am so very glad we've met.  I have a feeling over the next two months we'll get to know each other very well.  Apologize to your friend, nonfat peppermint mocha, because I've officially broken up with her this winter.  You're my new best friend.

Mwah,

Ashley

Dear Crayola colorwonder markers,

A huge thank you to you.  Finally a marker that Lauren can carry around, paint her face or the carpet with and I have nothing to clean up after.  Drew and William love you too because you magically appear on their special paper which is just so cool.  My guess is you have a 1 year old, a 4 year old, and a 5 year old, too?  Just a guess.  

Appreciatively,

Ashley

Dear Santa,

My friend, Melissa, told me of this new perfume she likes.  I went to try it and it's so lovely.  I haven't written a Christmas list in quite a few years but if you could, do you think you could find a way to leave this under the tree this year?  That'd be awesome.  And remember, Chris Santa, when mama is happy, everyone is happy.

Much love,

Ashley

Dear Harry,

We've been pals for over 15 years now.  I just want to thank you for your Christmas albums.  Christmas music and Harry Connick, Jr. - a marriage of two of my favorite things on this planet.  You are my official baking companion for the next 4 weeks.  Would it be too much for me to say I love you? 

I love you,

Ashley
