Nesties,
HELP!!!! My sister is getting married in 2 weeks. I haven't even started my toast. I have serious writers block. Any ideas?

Keep it short and sweet. Try not to incorporate too many inside jokes - it's always kinda awkward for people not in the know.
Dear Birthmother,
Soooooo excited to meet you tomorrow! Please love us as much in real life as you do on paper -- and let's get this ball rolling! And if you could also be willing to let me tag along to appointments and be in the delivery room, that would be an added bonus. I'm so excited/nervous and cannot wait. You are amazing and I am humbled to have this opportunity!
Love,
A hopeful adoptive mommy
Dear DH's former boss - YOU SUCK! I'd watch out for karma if I were you. I hope you don't think you can just go around firing people for no reason and not get anything in return. Truly, I hope that you learn from your mistakes and learn that being a supervisor is about bringing people up in the industry and helping them be better, instead of a big game of "gotcha". GROW UP! Sincerely, pissed off wife who just lost the opportunity for maternity coverage thanks to you
Dear DH's Interviewer - Don't you just love DH? Wouldn't he make a great program director at your agency? I think you should call him about that second interview, like now. He's free to come in anytime and tell you more about how great he is. Thanks! Sincerely, wife of your soon-to-be employee
Dear former co-irker - I'm glad you're gone. You just do not have the physical or mental capacity to hold a job anymore. I hope you decide to apply for disability rather than looking for a new job, for your own sake. It's time to take care of yourself. Sincerely, the lady whose been doing your job for the past year while you freak out
Dear MrsB,
I'm so excited for you guys and sending my best wishes and positive vibes your way.

Dear body,
Why do you keep getting sick... more specifically, upper respitory infections? They suck and this is the worst time to get one. And everytime I get DH sick. Not fun. Please go away!

Dear college friends,
It's time to grow up. We've been out of college for 6 years - move on, act like adults and start being the responsible, self sufficient people I know you can be.
Your kinda of annoyed friend.

Dearest DH,
Thank you for letting me be a scare-dy cat about the thunder this morning and also for catching me on my way out the door for an extra kiss.
Love, your wifey
Dear MrsB,
May God bless you with a miracle soon and let Him give you lots of strength for Wednesday.

You stink and squashed my hopes.
Thanks alot, No Sew Show
Dear diplomatic people in Singapore,?
Please get your sh!t together and allow DH"s plane to come in tomorrow, so I can meet him there for a ?"babymoon" ?this next week. His crew has been trying to go for 3 weeks now- this is ridiculous. If it gets delayed too much longer, I won't be able to join him, and I would be sad
Plus, I need to know whether or not to take Mav and Bandit to the kennel. Thanks ever so much,
~AF wifey
Dear DH,
I know we still have 2 months or so until lil cherry blossom makes her appearance, but it would be AWESOME if you could get the crib refinished and set up before she gets here! I know you are busy, but it would make me the happiest mommy-to-be if I could finish her nursery up!?
~your prego wife w/ extreme nesting issues
Dear lil' cherry blossom,
Mommy loves you sooooo much and can't wait to meet you! However, if you could make your appearance at your due date, not sooner or later, that would be great! That way, we can finish up your nursery, and your grandparents can visit with you the whole time they are here- it is difficult to coordinate airplane tickets and such around you little lady, so just come on out when you are supposed to, and not before or after. Thank you for following instructions so early on
Your mommy?
Dear foot,
Stop hurting! ?I promise I'll stretch better before I exercise next time, I promise!
me
Dear MrsB,
I know you don't know me, but I've followed your journey for a baby and I really hope tomorrow goes well for you and DH. ?I can tell y'all will be amazing, loving parents!
Tulips
Dear School and Internship,
I know this summer is going to be REALLY, REALLY hard for me. ?I'm really stressed and nervous about all this. ?Please be manageable and not completely miserable and allow me to feel like I have a little bit of a summer so I can come back to my kids in the fall refreshed and ready to work.
a stressed out student?
Dear 5th graders,
I have had the pleasure for teaching you for 180 days as of tomorrow. You have been an amazing bunch of students. I wish I could have a class like you every year...with increasingly less drama would be PERFECT! Most of you will be 6th graders because you did your work passed my class and TAKS. I'm so very proud.
your sad-to-see-you-go, but happy to have the end of the school year here 5th grade teacher.
Dear SIL,
you are so sweet to call and check to see how I'm doing with the info about my father being sick again. I know you are here for me if I need to talk. I can't wait to meet my new neice in July. Incubate that baby for me. I have baby fever bad.
your SIL
Dear DH,
Baby fever? You bet I have been infected with it. I know we are not "actively trying" until later this summer, but I have it bad. Help me find a cure!!
your baby fever infected wife.
Dear co-workers,
I really am going to miss some of you next year. As of right now I will be with the same "district" but at a different campus. I'm sad to move campuses because that means that I will not get to work with you. At the same time, I'm so glad to be away from the drama and the confusion that is at that campus. I hope you have the strength and patience to deal with whatever cards you have been dealt for next year.
good luck! your friendly neighborhood 5th grade co-worker
