Dear Lola, 

You may not know this, but I have been writing you letters since you were born. One for each month.  As a birthday surprise I am giving you these letters. It took me a little while to decide how to give them to you - and then I came across 'Belle and Boo' and it all became sparkling clear. 

I went about ordering twelve cards from the collection and will write each one of your letters in these cards. In the lead up to your birthday I will also put the letters and a photo of you from each month here.
