Re: Nightly Field Dispatch

Dear Maya and Leo,

Welcome to the Snowman Workshop. I built two snowmen and then I got hungry. There are enough supplies for you to make a whole snow family. Please name them. Mine are called Puff and Mallow.

Today’s mission: find me tomorrow morning. (I’m getting sneakier.)

P.S. I’m very good at hide-and-seek. You’re better. Don’t tell anyone I said that.

Filed in accordance with the Whimsy Act. Please keep in a safe and magical place.
