Letter From Toot

This is a letter from my mom (Toot) to her cousin Katie. Katie recently e-mailed it to me. Click on the image above to make the letter a little bigger. Only family will get most of the inside jokes, but I love the fact that my mom had this type of sense of humor. I'm assuming this letter was written between 1965 and 1970, after my mom and dad were married, but before they had kids. So, that would put her in her mid to late twenties.

Hey Sarah; I loved seeing the letter from Toot on your blog. Thanks for doing that, cause I was able to enlarge it. (When I scanned it, it was a blotchy blur.) The letter is precious to me. Ill show you the envelope too because she was an artist and decorated it with some weird stuff. A little post-note; The salutation "Dear Flocks" is Toot's eternal teasing me about a letter I sent Booba, Sam, Nancy, Sadie and Toot from camp in 1954 and I couldn't spell "folks". (I guess?)And "Hogears" was a name she gave your Daddy!. When you kids came along, you were "Piglet Ears". Keep up the fun way to catch up with you, Love,
cousin Katie
