Dear Kat

Dear Kat,

Love the Black Bear.
He goes with Panda Bear.
And Polar Bear.
And Brown Bear.
Oliver likes Bears.

He loves opening packages too,
so the presents under the Christmas tree are a very thrilling thing.

We have snow, amazingly, after two whole days,
it hasn't melted.
Feels cold like the Midwest
on a good day.
The mountains in the winter
are breathtaking
when you can see them;
I gasped today.

Gas is cheap;
you two should drive out here in the spring
and just bring the dogs.
Poor little Gabby.
You gave her a good life.
Pavel would have fun at the dog park
by our house. When's your next break?

I won't see you this year, so
Merry Christmas!

Until the winter breaks... Love, Dawn
