Comment: Thank you for the cute kitty envelope you made, the fun old photos, stamped images, generous postage to use, and especially your note. I agree that it is mostly about togetherness, but gift giving sure is fun. I kept it mild this year except went overboard for my BFF, like I'm known to do.
