Kai misses his big brother!

Kai and I drove Pla Shee to camp in La Grange on Sunday. Pla Shee was so excited--this is his second summer at Camp Lone Star, so he knew just what to expect this time around. 

Kai was excited, too, until I told him it was time to go home. He was so disappointed that he couldn't stay at camp with Pla Shee! Poor little guy. His spirits improved considerably when we stopped for a dinner date at the Elite Cafe in Waco on our way home. 

Yesterday Kai "wrote" a letter to Pla Shee and announced that he needed to put it in the mailbox so the "mail lady" could take it to camp for him. 

He rode his bike down to the end of the street and dropped in the mailbox. He was so proud. (Note: This adventure to the end of the street and back took at least half an hour). :)

One of the fun things about living in the country is that bike rides to the mailbox can be exciting adventures without any added work. For example, on our journey we saw a mama rabbit and her babies, found a horse shoe, and decided that a giant field of milo can make a pretty good maze for a person who is less than 3 feet tall.
