Dear Kate
As you will know, I'm practically a doctor and am prescribing a dose of chocolate for you to eat every day. Brand and type are immaterial, although the benefits of eating dark chocolate are becoming a mainstream belief.
I enjoyed seeing your milk bottle butterflies this afternoon. I don't know whether you remember the mobile I made for Tom at our last house? It was a milk bottle mobile - inspired by -- was it Hugo's or Archie's? -- that I saw at your house in New Zealand. Anyway, it had milk bottle butterflies. They looked great but they nearly killed my butterfly cutter - did you have any problems pulling them out? Mine didn't seem to cut neatly, I recall, and it was a bit of a pain.
I hope you're feeling better tonight. I'm still not 100% and look forward to what will hopefully be a quiet week at home. It's interesting to read your take on letter-writing. I actually have most of the letters you've ever written to me - as with letters from the rest of the family. I have trouble throwing them out. They're a record of our lives up until the point of email. In fact, I even printed out a few of the early emails, especially when Tom was born. Some day I will work out a good way of collating these letters, but for now they're in a series of boxes.
Speak soon.
Lots of love always,
Lucy xoxoxo
PS I've posted my yummy chocolate brownie recipe, in case you're interested!
