Hey guys, I apologize yet again for the delay. I don't know what has gotten into me. To make up for this extended absence, I'm once again posting two chapters. These are the winter entries that are the same every year. Please keep reviewing. Your feedback keeps me going.

Deer Elsa,

Happy birth day! I made you a card. It has a snow flake on the front and a pikture of us inside. Were skating on the pond. Member we used to do that? I wish we cood do that for your birth day and Chrismas. We had lots of fun. I skate sum times but its no fun with out you. I ask mama and papa but theyre always doing sum thing else. Gerda to. Ooh i know what i can do! Maybe ill draw prety piktures in the frost on the windows! Im gonna ask Gerda for a thimble to help me.

Luv,

Anna


Dear Anna,

Thank you for the birthday card. Gerda just brought it with a special breakfast. I love the pictures you drew on the front and the inside of the card. You're getting so good. Maybe you'll be an artist like me someday.

I do remember skating with you on the pond, especially the time when I first taught you how. I think I was about seven at the time and you were about four. You did so well. I was so proud of you. I knew you could do it, though. Whenever you learn something new, you keep working at it until you master it. I wish I could skate with you, too, but I can't just yet. I wish I could tell you why.

Love,

Elsa


Next up: Christmas.

Thanks for reading! More chapters coming soon! :)
