Dear Mom,
This is what I was wearing to work in the studio today (from top to bottom):
wool hat
green sweatshirt
orange and grey wool sweater
green wool sweater
short sleeved shirt
long sleeve shirt
another long sleeve shirt
tank top
long johns
jeans
athletic socks
wool boot socks
work boots.
My work boots by Simple are so old every layer of the soles is coming apart, and on my left foot the front part was flapping every time I took a step, so I duct taped it back together.

I was not cold.
Love,
Ruth

Dear Ruth,

I am so sorry that clown school is so chilly these days, but rest assured, your costume is an award winning one.

Don't forget to put on your red ball nose. You know it's a requirement, don't you?

Love, mom xoxoox

Dear Mom,
When the other clowns at clown school poke you in the ribs, it doesn't even make you flinch when you're wearing that much costume.
Love,
Ruth

Dear Ruth,

Gee, I wonder which clown does all the poking? What a mystery.

And I betcha he poked and poked and poked, right? Cause he couldn't feel one little rib.

Love, mom
