Oh hello there and happy holidays!

If you're like me on mailbox and inbox, I'm beginning to fill with the obligatory year

and updates from family and friends.

Exotic vacations, fulfilling careers, the accomplishments of so many perfect children.

Ah, it is the season!

And so you've sent us some of your favourite holiday news letters, so that we might have

some festive fun.

As in locations have been changed, of course.

Because if there's one thing I've learned in all my years, it's that there's always

room to read between the lines.

And chances are, it's a wonderful lie.

Welcome back everyone, I'm Ashley Flowers.

And I'm Holly Lorette.

Um, Greg S. I almost forgot my name.

Quite you today, sir.

So you guys, today's letter is from somebody who I think we can call a showbiz parent?

Yeah, yeah.

Stage mom and dad are like a whole thing.

Which I kind of, again, I know you two are like in entertainment.

Did your parents push you into stuff when you were younger?

Did they push you into this at all?
