Surprise Birthday (list)

Since he’s growing up (see birthday ref. above) and getting too cool for Spidey toys and stuff his family assiduously picks out of specially ordered catalogues, Li’l A gave me a handwritten list of stuff he wanted for his birthday. It gave me a case of the “awww-s” because it was so simple and innocent: Can we walk along the abandoned railroad and picnic there? Can I download some songs I heard on guitar hero? Can we order Terminator on Netflix? And then this:

Can I have my own laptop? Mac, please.

The precision of his punctuation still kills me :).
