Kite Days
A kite, a sky, and a good firm breeze,
And acres of ground away from trees,
And one hundred yards of clean, strong, string,
O boy, O boy!  I call that Spring!

My adorable four year old came up and asked me to write the following letter for her:


Dear American Girl, 
Please send me two dolls tonight.  Two big ones.  With two dresses.   
Thank you. 
From,
Olivia


She then wanted to quickly run it out to the mail.  So, we had to sit down and discuss the fact that these dolls actually cost money and they won't just send us one (or two) because we ask. 
This girl makes me laugh.
