Morgan wrote this letter to the makers of Tom’s of Maine Toothpaste. She had it ready to go and finished the envelope (by getting the address off the box) during her pen-pal/correspondence time one school day before Christmas. I had NOTHING to do with this one – and had NO idea she was working on it! I died laughing when I read it.
She looked at me and asked, “What??!!??!!“
I told her she was cute. She didn’t mind; she likes making me laugh. My Morgan is a funny one.

That’s GREAT Heather! Good job Morgan! How awesome that she desires to send a thank you to a vendor that provides something she likes. What good character she has, you’re doing a great job with her Heather.

I showed your post to my 8 year old homeschool daughter and she was so excited that she had to go online and visit her blog to say hi.

that is classic! How much fun! So she’s 8? So is Zoe. That sounds like something she would do.
Mrs. C says
LOL She’s a pretty confident one. I hope you counted that toward her English studies!!
Dawn says
That letter is absolutely PRICELESS. It will most surely grace the walls of Tom’s. Thanks so much for sharing that gem. 🙂
Cindy says
That’s wonderful! I’m going to have to get some Tom’s now as I’m dreaming of that clean teeth feeling, too. 🙂

Hey, I sure hope they send her some free samples after such a nice letter! With illustrations, no less.
Heather says
Actually they didn’t send her samples! I was surprised. They just sent her a nice letter back and a long order form with all their products. Kind of felt more like a sales letter to me. I was disappointed. Got more love out of the letter we went to the New Orleans PD after Katrina. They sent my son a nice big thermal mug with their logo on it… and a really sweet card thanking him for the prayers.
Thanks for the comments everyone. Morgan is treasuring them.

Awww..well that kind of sucks that they just sent an order form – to an 8 year old. 🙂 Sheesh. I’m proud of her writing, Mini-Me draws a blank (no pun intended) when it comes to writing letters.)
Tell her that the dentist won’t put braces in until all her grown up teeth come through. I’ve had to ask. Mini-me may get them.
