Tommys Thoughts

Dad has not been willing to let me play with his computer much lately, so I haven't been able to update you on what is going on. I'm in my second semester of school and things are going great. I'm only going 2 days a week now for 2 hours, but I will get to go 3 days next year. I had a great Christmas this year. I found a toy in a catalog that I just had to have and I carried the picture of it around with me everywhere that I went and finally on Christmas day, I looked under/next to the tree and there it was. I only played with it for a couple of days and moved on, but Santa came through for me. I still play with it every now and then, but we have moved it into my soon to be brother/sisters room. One of my favorite things about Christmas this year were dad's Lionel trains. He set up two tracks around the tree and I laid there for hours watching the trains go around, he also purchased a Christmas train that we ran on the other loop. I have really gotten into trains, dad has bought me quite a few videos and he and I get the catalogs out all the time and I point out all the things that I would like him to get. Its not hard, he is as bad as me if not worse when it comes to these things, so there isn't much that I point out that he doesn't want anyway. He has started to amass quite a collection and is going to build us a big table in the basement if he ever gets off his butt. In March mom and dad moved Sean into my room, I was excited at first, but then he would cry every night. I think he really missed his old crib, but he eventually got used to it and now we are happy to be in the same room. Oh yea, I got a bike for Christmas from Grandma and Grandpa and I have been out riding it. I'm no Evel Knievel, but I can ride it pretty good. It won't be long now and dad will have to take the training wheels off. We just past Easter the other day and it was like having Christmas all over again. I got lots of toys and some candy, I got this stuff called gooze that looks like the lava in a lava lamp. Its great, it sticks to everything. Mom's thankful that it comes off in water. I gotta go, I need to get some candy.
