Hi Kieran,
How are you today? Hope you are doing well. I had so much
fun with you yesterday! I’ve also attached the photos of our time together as I
promised.
I am so glad you liked the “Star Trek” guys and the
Enterprise. Having them take the pod to an alien planet and explore it, just
like we used to play, was a good time. There are other “Star Trek” pod
characters we can get, so I will look for them in stores and bring some along
the next time we get together.
Putting together and playing with the Lone Ranger Legos was fun,
too. There are a whole bunch of Lone Ranger Lego sets, so I will look for them as
well. We have to find one with Tonto, the Lone Ranger’s faithful companion. I sure
hope you get to see the movie soon.
You have really gotten fast – Catching you was really difficult
when we played football! I am so proud of you that you working on your baseball
and soccer skills and getting better at them. When you were younger, we had a
T-ball set, and you were very good at hitting the ball. You had very strong
arms and could hit the ball a long ways! You also could throw a great spiral
with the football. Always focus on and master the fundamentals, and you’ll do
really well playing any game.
You’ve also are really learning the states! I was amazed at
how many of them you remembered when we put together the puzzle. Would you also
like to learn where the countries of the world are, since you asked about
Greece? I shall have to find a world map puzzle for us.
The air rockets that you shot off at school sound like a great class project. How high did your air rocket go? I once had a model rocket that looked like the Enterprise from “Star Trek.” It went about 40 feet in the air. When you are older, we will have to shoot off some model rockets at Grandpa and Grandma Bignell’s farm.
The “Snackin’ Safari” game with the elephant springs sure
was neat, wasn’t it? Getting the food cards to stick to the suction cup is
difficult to do, isn’t it? I think the game might better if the elephant trunk
and the cars had magnets on them instead, don’t you?
Have you tried on the new shirt yet? It’s pretty cool how it
says “California Lifeguards Association” on it! Since the Long Beach T-shirt I
got you was a little big, this time I got you one that was a size smaller – I hope
it fits!
Hopefully the Pokémon cards also will help your set that you
have. I’m afraid I don’t much about Pokémon – maybe you can explain more about
it to me next time!
Well, that is all for now. We next get together on Friday,
July 26, and I can’t wait to see you! I love you and miss you very much; I
think about you every day!
Love,
Dad
