Dear Edward;
Hoping you will enjoy thanks.
given. How are you and Bonnie
We are still waiting for that
picture of you both. Hoping you
are still doing well at school,
I wish you could see Ben, he and
Ben have great times he has learned
quite a number of tricks, when we
are cooking dinner or supper he goes
in the pantry and gets his plate out
and carries it all around, and full
around on your clothing until he is
fed. Edward, what is Santa going to
bring you, I am sure there will be
great many things you will want.
I hope to hear from you one of these
or you from the same.
B, U L
