Dear jigsaw puzzle, thank you for keeping me occupied this evening during hockey and football night.  You have challenged me yet made me feel like I'm accomplishing something.  Dear cinnamon toast, you're easy to make, delicious, and remind me of childhood.  Dear MKD, I love that you made all the snacks for today's sports marathon on TV.  Meatballs, little hotdogs, a veggie tray, and bbq sandwiches...we had our own little party.  Dear Y, thanks for occupying T today.  I love it that he will spend hours just shooting baskets.  Dear M, thanks for taking the christmas decorations down to the basement.  Without complaining.
