Comments from Submitter:
The instructions only show 1 letter tile in the construction and 3 came in the set, so I think this is the tradition handling.

Hmmm, these are more troublesome. I don't know how TLG arrived at a part
count of 222 parts for this set. Current BL inventory shows 225 parts.

Since you have a new set in hand, will you attempt to determine what a part count
of exactly 222 parts would consist of? If I approved these requests the part
count would remain at 225 and still not match their part count.

Since the dolls came assembled with clothing, I'm wondering if they were
counted as one part each. The mother + dress and daughter + dress would remove
two parts, getting us to 223. If the two other envelope tiles were actually
considered extras, then removing one would get us to 222 and we'd match.
The medium green sprue would hike the count back up to 223, though - are the
medium green parts included in the sprue shown to be used anywhere in the instructions
or anywhere on the set box?

We don't have to match TLG's part count, of course, but it would be nice
if we could.

I'm trying to get that fixed right now.

No, the green parts are not acknowledged anywhere. It could have been a mistake,
I suppose, but I would guess they were just giving more options.

Did you factor in the bucket and handle in all of this?

It looks like it all shook out.
