His birthday is in August. He already has big plans as to who will spend the night for a sleep over. I hide upstairs most of the evening and keep them off the stairs. We started into mowing this summer and it makes happy to be passing that job on.

He was very happy making money from his lemonade.

Hi that was ok hasn't mentioned anything about a pen pal and that hasn't surprised me. He must have seen something on TV about pen pals and wanted to check it out more.

My son and both started school on Monday. They were both happy to go back to school.

Thanks for trying.

Bill
