Dear Mom,
Everyone was standing in the street yesterday! It was so exciting. Rosie was there. And Spencer. And Cody.
XOXO Poppy

Dear Poppy,
Yes, a lot of us brought our dogs. 
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mom,
But why were we standing in the street?
XOXO Poppy

Dear Poppy,
We were all keeping a safe distance from each other while we chatted. 
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mom,
But in the street?????????
XOXO Poppy

Dear Poppy,
There have hardly been any cars on our street. When one approached, I just moved. We were safe, sweetie.
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mom,
It was strange. You all look funny with masks.
XOXO Poppy

Dear Poppy,
It’s a funny time, isn’t it? But this once-a-week gathering of our neighbors helps some. Since we stand ten feet away from each other, we’re safe. It’s called Social Distancing. 
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mom,
You all had glasses of wine.
XOXO Poppy

Dear Poppy,
We did. That made it a very nice social occasion. Too bad I had to cut it short. Because you wouldn’t stop barking at sweet little Rosie. The other dogs were so much better behaved.
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mom,
Rosie and I have a lot to say to each other. She barks at me every time we walk by.
XOXO Poppy

Dear Poppy,
Well, it meant I had to take you back home because you were so annoying.
Love, Carolyn

Dear Mom,
I was helping you Social Distance.
XOXO Poppy
