Hello from California (by William)

Dear Alvin, Karen, and Matthew, 

How are you doing in Texas?  We are good and here are some news.

Our school has changed a lot since you moved away.  Ms. West rotated down to 5^th grade (I have her), Mr. Peterson is down to 2^nd grade, and Ms. Tang switched to a different school.  I hope you were here to witness it.

The neighborhood has changed too.  The apartment you once lived in is now in the process of killing termites and it’s all wrapped up.  The man who feeds a lot of cats finally sold his house.

I loved the old times when we used to have many play dates.  When I walk by Souplantation, I hear our blissful voices chattering.  Every time I see Vicky’s brother and Kevin, I vision Alvin running along.  Another vision is Karen standing in the 4^th grade line.

Old Memories

Alvin, I know that you are a PVZ2 expert so I’d like to ask a few questions.  First, how do you defeat the explorer zombie?  It keeps burning up my plants.  Second, how do you pop the head off a wizard zombie?  He turns my plants into sheep!  Third, what is your favorite imp?  Mine is the rock star imp from neon mixtape tours.

Karen, the biggest memory that you left me was your signature on a table cloth in my room.  My stuffed duck is sitting on it right now.

Karen's Signature

Mathew, I don’t know if you know this yet, but the night you were born, your Ma and Pa dropped Alvin and Karen at our home.  When I woke up, I found Karen in my bed, and her hair in my face and mouth.  One word--Gross!  

How is your new house, community, and hometown?  Have you started school?  If the answer is yes, do you like your new school?  Have you made new friends?  I hope your mom’s commute is much better, and my mom misses your mom.  I miss you guys all and please visit us again soon.

 

Love, 

William
