Dear Mommy,

I found this box! Is it a surprise for me?

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

No honey, it’s just a box.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

No it’s not just a box. It’s a Gucci box.

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

It’s a repurposed Gucci box.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

I’m so excited!!!!! I think you are giving me something extravagant for the Holidays.

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

Calm down. It’s just an empty box. So you want a jewelry gift?

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

If it’s nice jewelry.

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

You used to have a collar and you slipped out of it every chance you got.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

It was not a nice collar.

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

Yes it was! It was leather, it was blue to match your eyes, and it had your name on a little silver charm.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

I didn’t care for it.

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

You made that quite clear. You left it in the garden. Several times. Once in the compost pile. I got the message.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

It wasn’t my style.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Mia,

I think your style is wild and naked.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

So that means no jewelry presents for me?

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

I’ll probably stick to the usual treats and catnip toys.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Mommy,

I love treats and catnip toys!!!!!!!!

Love, Mia

 

Dear Mia,

I know you do. You make gift-giving easy.

Love, Carolyn
