Dear Danny

Lila painted a picture for Danny a few days ago. When it had dried she dictated a letter to him. This is how it went (in her own words faster than I could even keep up!! I think that "scurvy dog" comes from a pirate book that he read to her while he was here.)



Dear Danny,
We got your letter. Thank you for giving us... uhm... a letter. Dear Danny. I love you. This day was really great, and I really love you. You are my bestest uncle and you are really funny because I'm not a scurvy dog because that's what you say in Spanish. "Scurvy dog & belmo" means I love you. Dear Danny, we are giving you a message because you are my bestest uncle & scurvy dog is what you called me and you do what I say and I really love you for saving the earth. Dear Danny, I love you scurvy dog. Your mission is really great because you are my bestest in the world and I really love you for days and days and days! Scurvy dog! I want to say that this is from Lila. Love Danny (she wouldn't let me write Love, Lila. Then I helped her draw a heart and write her name.)
