Dear Mom and Dad,
Today is Sunday. It was Uncle Nicks first day back home, and his birthday.
We met with some of the family for dinner, but really we just had a relaxing day at camp, and I was adored. I have been thinking about my little spirit stick job, and giving the penguin a talking to… and a gnawing at… I figure if I gnaw at his little feet, maybe those Penguins will skate slow, or just not play well and we will win this CUP thingy….
I gnawed and gnawed at those litte feet,
and then it occurred to me,
If we win, I am jobless…
No More Spririt Stick, no more Red Wing Jersey…
I will only be a PRINCESS
and an unemployed princess at that…
So…. I 
have been trying to come up with a new job, where there is NOT so much potential to fail… I mean if they lose, ITS SAD BECAUSE I will have all these WING NUTS being all DISAPPOINTED and stuff…
and if they win, I am OOW, which is my little acronym for OUT OF WORK’!
I figure, I am a princess, and that takes so much of my time, and I am the worlds most adorable human ‘spirit stick’.
(not an opinion either since… I am so adorable that I even WON OVER SOME DIEHARD BLACK HAWK FANS THIS WEEK END) here I am ‘negotiating with the Penguins again. 
Until I realized… ITS A DUCK… darn… I have been wasting all this on a duck… well, win or lose on Tuesday, I know one thing for sure… Poppy say’s no unemployement for me, because, I have the all important task of making my mom and dad smile. SEND THEM INTERNET HUGS, AND SUPER COMPUTER KISSES EVERY DAY…to keep them from losing sight of US. Our family that extends from the GREAT LAKE STATE, to the LAND OF SAND.
Nana says you called today, and she wanted me to say, you too are adored. You and Dad have to be ‘army’ strong… and know that I am doing very well. I am glad you will not get deployed when I am able to do so many things with you. She said you are really missing me and daddy badly, but guess what I know a secret. I know that no matter where you are, no matter how far – you need to remember that daddy and I are thinking about you, and loving you more than you know. No sadness! My princess heart wants your heart to be happy about all the things we will do when you come home. AND BELIEVE ME, I WILL KEEP YOU BUSY DOING SO MANY FUN THINGS. For today I am sending you these pictures of me, to make your heart smile! I love you today, and always… your Little Miss Adorable, your daughter,
Guillianna!
Nana
Hello Princess,
It’s Mommy and yes – you will always have a job. I love You and miss you very much. And look at you, your hair is getting longer! You are growing up so quick. I can’t wait until I see you again. I hope one day you will understand how much I love you and how much you mean to me. I love you Guillianna.
Love always,
Mommy
Hello princess!
Well look at those big blue eyes, and all the red hair on that precious head of yours! You know I miss you so much, and I miss Mommy terribly too… it’s so hard being away from both of you I lose my mind every now and again. I hate being away from both of you, and it appears to me that the light at the end of the tunnel seems farther than I had once thought. I hope Uncle Nick has a very happy birthday, and I am glad he is home safe. Make sure you give him a big princess smile for all of us. I hope you know that both mommy and you are always on my mind. I’m missing the most important part of my life right now, and will never make the mistake of being away from you two EVER again. No matter what the future holds, Mommy and I will make sure you are taken care of and we are there to watch you grow every step of the way. I love you so much, and to have my own liberties and freedom taken away from me when I joined originally to fight for them is painful. I’ll explain more to you when you’re older, and you’ll know the whole story. I hope one day you’ll understand the value of our love for you, and know everything we fight for is for our family. I miss and love you both so much!
Love always,
Daddy
Guillianna …. out of a job or not – you better be wearing that jersey on Tuesday! I will be bringing mine in the car so I can put it on when I am on my way home!!!
Guillianna, I think that you look absolutely adorable in the outfit that you wore to Chicago to meet your Uncle Nick. But then, you ALWAYS look so adorable; no wonder you make your nana, mommy and daddy so happy. You have the most beautiful blue eyes.
That is so funny…. the little yellow and white outfit is one of Nana’s favorites too…..
Glad to hear from you Grammy…. Love Guillianna!
Dear Mommy, I KNOW ALREADY how much you love me, you are doing this all for me! Nana says you will spend most of your life, just like her and Poppy have, trying to show your the child you love, just how much they are loved.
That is a big job… and you and daddy, well you are the best for making it possible for me to have such a good start in life, and by working so hard. When you are done there, we will be together, and our lives will be better for all your hard work. I love you mom, Guillianna!
