Drewese Answers

I know you all are dying to know what Drew wrote! I know because you are all asking me by phone and email:-) OK, here it is...

Please do not come in my room. Not even grown-ups! Thank you.

An 11 year old neighbor kid had a similar note pinned to his bedroom door. Naturally Drew looks up to the big kids and wants to do whatever it is that they do. It's scary how much influence random people have on what Drew thinks a "big boy" should be like. On with the deciphering! The next one I'll do line by line...

Nerf gun (checkmark, period) To Santa
Goliath (period, checkmark)
Skateboard (period, checkmark)
Two-wheeler skateboard (period, checkmark)
Robot Dad (period, checkmark)
Robot dog (period, checkmark)
To Santa Claus (Checkmark)

This was Drew's list to Santa. Now that you know what the words are, you are still probably wondering what they mean. Some things just don't make sense, even after they are deciphered. Now we will go deeper into Drew's mind...

I bet you are wondering, "How many kids were asking for Goliath this year???? Was that the hot item?" Back in the fall, Brian bought Drew a David action figure. Well, to Drew, to have a David (complete with sling shot) would not be fun to play with without a Goliath to defeat. Drew has been asking for a Goliath since then! I went to get one at the Christian bookstore and believe it or not, they were all out!!!

Next on the list that might need some explanation is the two-wheeler skateboard. That really wasn't a fair one for you all since only Brian and I really knew what that was. He actually wanted a two-wheel scooter. He's been playing with a hand-me-down baby 3 wheeler and was ready for the upgrade.

Now the robot Dad and robot dog have been on the list the longest. Since last Christmas in fact. Drew and I visited our friends Karen and Chloe just after Christmas last year. Chloe had received a robot and a robot dog. What an impression those robots made on Drew because a year later they still make the list.
