Notes to the GretchieVerse

Dear Blog: I really need to rename you. You are not so much about the Cronin Family as you are about me.
Dear D: Thank you for breakfast yesterday. I really thought you would have sat there and lectured about how against you are of public expression. I love you too and thank you much for caring about my happiness.  I know, but wouldn't it be great if happiness could be purchased on a yearly basis at Costco? I am going to find it one day...even if it costs me a subscription to "The Economist".
Dear S&M: Wow I just didn't think about how that would appear...rather kinky aye ? Anyway, thank you for dropping by yesterday and inviting me on Sunday. I am totally looking forward to it !  We taking little F? Shal sorry that you had to learn about my NRS 3 months later. I suppose it is just something I have to work and have had to work out on my own. I will still need to for the months to come.
Dearest Roxy: Thank you for taking me to " See Jane Run" ! I very much love my new shirt and jacket and when my cold/bronchitis goes away...Gretchie is going to use those clothes !!
Dearest Lenore: Saw you on Sunday ! You looked faboo !  Not excited that there will never be as cool ladies in Georgia like you.
Dearest Stacey: In order to have a doggie play date you have to return my calls.....
Dear Little F: I had a fantastic time with you at Basil Leaf Cafe. Oh my gosh we need to get a recipe book just on Salmon. So, I can have Salmon every week....in some fantastic form. Those poor little salmon swimming up stream...you are all mine ! all mine !
Dear Heavenly Father: I am not getting my dream car am I ?  I suppose you are not the one to ask for a car, but what I would get is another minivan.
Dear Jesus: So, on Sunday I had three hours of you. Did I feel filled with the holy spirit ? I am not quite sure....I just know because of the guilt you have laid into my soul I signed up for a bunch of stuff that I really do not have time to do. Why do churches use you for guilt ? Why can't I just love you and be on with my life ?
....
Dear London : Someone asked me what my fascination is with you. Trust me, I have a lot of fascinations...but you speak English and you have the queen and Colin Firth. Why would I not want to be anywhere else ?
Dear E&A: You are about to lose your hair....you need to brush it daily. It looks like a wasps nest. You look homeless...your latest preschool pictures are nightmares. I am ready to cut it short.  So short that A  you must just look like the boy you have always wanted to be.
