Dear boss

Why can't you stop micromanaging and let everyone get on with the jobs you hired us to do?

Dear self

Stop procrastinating.

Dear period

Why must you always malignantly wait until I'm wearing pink knickers before you put in an appearance? Angry

Dear DD
Please go to sleep now. No I'm not reading you another story (you have had 4) and I'm not singing another lullaby. Just shut your eyes and lie still. You are very tired and you have school in the morning.

I love you tho.

Dear DS
I Love you to the end of the earth, I'm sorry your life started with a big bump but I want to make amends, and with your co-operation we will get there, but I need your help. So please start enjoying your physio, and not just the bit where nanny falls off the ball in demonstration.

Love Mummy xxx

Dear Bumpsadaisy

I know exactly how you feel, I am in that grim first trimester place too. 12 weeks. But we know it'll be worth it eh? Come on Beany Bike and Beany Bumps, give us a break!

Dear DH
I also love you to pieces, your great with our DS who doesn't always sleep at night, and thank you for getting up with him when I have been ready to drop.
Also for giving me a break on an evening when it's bath time.
Love Bod xx

Dear Dad,

It is coming up to your 6th anniversary and we still miss you so much. I wish you could have met your grandchildren and have known that one of them shares your birthday and the other your name.

Dear Ds2,

Please sleep! You are a fab kid, but love of god, your sleeping is rubbish.

AttillaTheMum · 14/04/2011 19:45

Dear Husband,

If you open something throw the wrapper in the bin,
If you get out a mug, close the cupboard,
If you eat something, please put the plate in not on the dishwasher

Thank you

Dear boyfriend,

I love you to distraction, but please, please learn to use the correct 'your'/'you're'. I've been correcting you for a year now.

Thanks. You're awesome and I am amazed at how clever you are, but your grammar drives me crackers!

Lots of love,
K

Dear DD1's best friend

I know you are going through a tough time at the moment but could you stop being such a massive show-off and being evil to DD2 just because you aren't used to having other kids around and want to monopolise DD1.

Dear willpower

please come home - I'm on my 2nd alcoholic drink of the evening and I'm contemplating a sneaky fag.

OeufaBrain · 14/04/2011 20:06

dear boys,

I am so glad I got you. I love you more and more every year!
I am so glad we get to spend some time together this holidays
Dear Dh, next year, ds1 won't want to spend time with us as a family. Please stop being grumpy and tetchy and take a couple of days off to spend with them. They love you so much and I know you love them.

Dear Tuesday,

You are the day of my first scan appt and I'm terrified and excited in equal amounts. Please hurry up and arrive so I can hopefully have some peace of mind and start to believe this good thing is really happening to me.

Dear DH,

I do love you, really I do, and I appreciate all you do around the house and the fact that in October I am going to give up work and you are going to be supporting me and our DC, but if you pick a fight with me about the housework when I'm on the verge of passing out ever again I will remove your testicles and make them into earrings.

Dear Pay Role,
Why every time you ring to quiry something with pay it must not be my folt that my pay is wrong every single time!

littlewater · 14/04/2011 20:40

Dear lazy woman,
my job level is assistant (hint- it's in my job title!), so please get off your ass! stop playing with that damn phone, and get on with your work. As i am sick of picking up after you!

i don't care what you did last Saturday, and who you saw kissing while drunk!
For the love of god please stop putting half a bottle of perfume on you! it might help to wash that damn face too.
if that all seems too much then get your head out of your ass.

Dear World

Please don't encourage celebrities. Ignore them and they'll go away.

Dear Molly the Cat

Sweetie, I know that the birds are chirping and the sun is coming up but that does not mean that I need to get up and feed you at 4.30am!! Please refrain from jumping on me/meowing in my ear/patting my nose at this god forsaken hour!

Thanks

Funtimewincies · 14/04/2011 20:46

I feel your pain cavemum, our cat has taken to sweeping everything off the chest of drawers (perfume, hairspray, etc.) in a series of loud crashes in a desperate attempt to get our attention Grin.

Dear mummylouise,

Am sending you a shedload of liver holding out vibes and a sack load of best wishes.

Love mini wedge

Dear arse,

Please shrink. You know you want to.

Dear DH

Please find someone to help you with your anger. I want to be a family. I don't want to dislike you the way I do so often. I want to be treated well and feel looked after.

I don't know what to write in your birthday card for tomorrow. It would normally be 'forever yours' or 'all my love forever' but I don't feel like that at the moment. I want to feel like that again.

Please?

Dear DD

I'm so sorry you've still got tonsilitis. I wish I could take your pain away and help you to understand that yoghurt would be so much easier to swallow than toast, but you're not quite 1 yet and you haven't worked it out yet.

I love you more than I ever thought it possible to love anyone and I missed you when I was at work today. I'm so tempted to wake you up just so I can have the cuddles I missed out on.

Mummy x
