Dear Dwerlina~

I thank you for writing; it is so good to hear from you again! I do hope that you will do well for your finals; just do the best job you can, and no matter how you do, know that I will always be proud of you, and so will daddy! :) We are both doing well, and we can't wait to see you for Christmas! It will be so wonderful having the entire family home for Christmas and New Year's, and you will surely get a kick out of Arjun, Rani, and Janica! They are wonderful kids, and we have fallen hopelessly, deliriously, unabashedly in love with all three of them! :) We couldn't have asked for a better Christmas present than having God bless us with these special kids! :) He is truly good to us! :)

I am all ears about your news that you will be sharing! Can't you just give your old mama even ONE measly HINT?? PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE?? I promise I won't tell! :) But I bet it is happy news; you seem to be tickled to death about SOMETHING! :)

The kids are antsy about your coming home; they really miss having you around! They are also looking forward to having Jenna and Michael here from Alaska and Sari and Nikolas from Finland! You will love Jenna, Michael, Nikolas, and Sari! They are all wonderful friends, and I have enjoyed writing/talking to them all! It's just too bad they live so far away, especially Nikolas and Sari! (But Alaska is a fur piece, too!)

Well, I have to go; I think I have cookies in the oven, and they are starting to smell a bit on the burnt side. Sorry for the running off, but I don't want to have a housefire for Christmas, if you know what I mean! LOL That would NOT be good! See you next week, Doll! I love you so much it hurts!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your Mama. :D
