Little Letters (And Big Announcement)

Dear Reader,

My brand new little nephew Elisha James made his debut appearance (a little earlier than expected) on Friday. He's still adjusting, so we haven't been able to spend any quality time together yet, but I predict that he's going to be super-smart, laaaiiid-back, and have his dad's ultra-pudgy and kissable little baby cheeks.

Dear Eli,
Welcome to the world, little man! I'm going to be the best Auntie ever, and I'm going to teach you all of the most annoying songs that have ever been sung, and get you a humongous drum set for your third birthday.

Dear G&L,
Now that you've successfully produced the first grandchild, I'm gonna need you to send Eli over to Mop and Pop's as often as possible, so they can get it out of their system.

Dear Mop and Pop,
Yes, we're taking a trip this summer. But I do not think it means what you think it means.

Dear Lubbock spring,

I was wishing and hoping and planning and dreaming of you, but then came you came with your wind and your dust and your suddenlike rain showers, and I remembered why you're bittersweet.

Dear spring break,

Long time, no see. Sorry we're not as tight as we used to be; I'm a working girl now.

Dear neck and shoulder pain,

Leave me alone, please. You may think it's funny that I can't turn my head and have to glance sideways out of the corners of my eyes, but I do not.

Dear Elsie, Leigh-Ann, and Jill,

I'm loving the workshop so far! I just know I'm going to learn so much!

Dear Book Group friends,

Thanks for taking us out, inviting us in, and sharing meals with us this weekend. We love you guys.

Dear pink street friends,

I'm running a really great sale in the shop this month! Head over and check it out!
