Del Viento.
What is your boat like?
Um...fun.

It'll have dolphins on the wall and my new bed will be big.
Why are you moving onto a boat anyway?
Because the whole family can be together and it'll be very fun.

Send emails to them, and cards, and I'll also see them cause I'll sail there.

Go for a swim. In other words, I won't be bored, I don't think.
What will your day be like?

Yes.
What are you most excited about?
When I drive there I'll get to see Mexico and I'll get to see the whole boat and decorate my room.
When did Eleanor grow up so much? I miss this sweet girl. I love her outlook on her future life on the boat, especially the part about not being bored and the part about sailing to see people (us too, please!).
ReplyDeleteMike - Other than your bringing "Lambies", this sounds a lot like what you'll be doing too.....
ReplyDeleteI love that she says she won't get bored. I think that's probably true.
