My Dearest Molly,
Every year, one of my most FAVORITE things you do is make ornaments at school. Your teachers have been very creative -- we have reindeer with construction paper versions of your tiny baby hands as the antlers... a wreath made of green construction paper scraps you glued together... and a reindeer head you made out of painted puzzle pieces. We'd get one, maybe two each year. And when you brought them home, you were so excited to give them to us and we'd hang them on the tree together.
Then came Kindergarten... and an avalanche of Christmas ornaments:
First, an ornament you made with Shiloh, your third-grade buddy...
Then this little Rudolph, which make me smile every time I look at it...
The scratch-off skate you decorated at your class party...
And two glittery gems you made at after-care...
Then we went to Glazed and Confused and made a couple more! (Yes, that's your thumbprint and Ellie's thumbprint as reindeer.)
And last, but not least, this beautiful ornament you made in Mrs. C.'s glass as a Christmas present for Daddy and me:
I can't wait until next year.
