Ohio,Hey kiddo~what's up~?Nothing really going up here, just waiting for the snow to stop. It's so annoying!Oh and I heard you thought I was adopted..how could you think that? I've been around since-forever! I feel so hurt...Hope you're well,AlexMaine

Dear Maine,

I'm so sorry! I really gotta stop listenin' to California. It's colder than sin here so I know how you feel.

Nothin' to exciting going on here. Just sadness and anger. Did Massachusetts tell you about Columbus?

Yours in Eternity,

Ohio

Ohio, Dad is crazy. He tells me to stay away from stress, but when he's upset with me, he reminds me of what that idiot England did and I just about lose Canada refuses to answer his cell phone, but I'm pretty sure he'll help me. Dad is pretty preoccupied with the new McDonalds in my state. He's been real neglectful lately, but I guess I see why. His boss is mad at him because we're all in debt to China, Japan, Russia, Mexico, etc. but so many citizens are already so poor that they can't- Why the heck am I defending him again? I bet it's the stupid new stress medication... Anyways, I'm currently building a boat so most of New England(hate that we're named after him) is coming to help! That means me, Maine, Delaware, New York, and Vermont (and maybe Canada if he gets here in time)for now, because I haven't told many yet. Especially since New Hampshire is a gossipsometimes. Anyways, I think I just heard from New York that the boat is done. He also demanded that Little York(my nickname for his not-so-little city, New York) will come. Maine is bringing a bunch of his cities too. I'd write more, but Uncle Canada just got here! See you soon, I hope! -Massachusetts

Dear Massachusetts,

So much help! Thank you so much! I can't wait! I feel like Mockingbird by Eminem fits my situation. I remember when Alfred used to sing the chorus to me when I missed my mom. "Now hush little baby, don't you cry. Everything's gunna be alright. Now stiffen that upper lip, little lady. I told ya, daddys here to hold you through the night." It seems like those words mean nothing now.

Massachusetts, no matter how much you hate Grandpa England, you cannot deny that he is your parent. He is really nice. And I'm not saying that because he's the only one I can trust. And you of course. Sorry for the tear stains on the paper. I just can't get over Scotty. It kills me how I won't get to see his goofy smile ever again. Elyria is mad at me because started cutting. She says that I need to stop and she hides all the knives but I still find them. Hong Kong has tried to stop me but it's no use. Farefarren.

Yours in Eternity,

Ohio
