@amic Uh, really? I think I bought that for #Little_Boy_A.
-
I really do enjoy these weekly videochats with #sonTwo and his wife and #GS3. It isn’t quite the same as when #Little_Boy_A was that age, because #Daddy_A and family were right around the corner and I saw him in person multiple times each week, but it is still helping us attach.
-
Oh, #Little_Boy_A had a meltdown because his brother got Spiderman pajamas for his third birthday (and the older boy got none). They had to send him to bed early. I’m still hoping there’s a picture or two of the grandkids together before that.
-
First day of first grade (a few days ago) pictures came today! #Little_Boy_A looking so grown up. He’s had a little growth spurt, so he’s again taller than his younger brother (almost three years old).
.
Also, he’s sick. I guess his siblings aren’t enough of a germ factory to prepare for school.

Went to #Target to buy some more #yogurt, but got distracted by the pricing on school supplies. So I got backpacks ($18 each!) for #GD1 and #GD2 ( I bought #Little_Boy_A's backpack already ), art supplies, notebooks, folders, graph paper, an entry-level scientific calculator, pencils, elementary school lettering practice workbooks, and more.
#sonOne is going to have fun teaching his daughter to use that calculator. And the maps. Did I mention the wall-hanging USA and world maps I bought? (One pair for each son's kids.)
-
#Little_Boy_A’s grandmother is taking him school shopping this week, so I’ll send the backpack without school supplies.
Meanwhile, #GD1 and #GD2 have a shopping trip scheduled a week from now. I will not have to send a lot.

Purchased for six year old #Little_Boy_A
-
I think the lesson is clear: #GS2 (age 21) has communicated once in the last six years, while #Little_Boy_A (age 6) is always willing to communicate. Guess which grandson gets a new tablet?
-
#Daddy_A shares (in response to a news story about a child missing from the family yard): When we were in #SoCal, we were afraid to let #Little_Boy_A play in the yard. In the #Midwest, the neighbors are watching him as much as I am.
Curiously, he did not say what he felt about the child's safety in the Phoenix, #AZ, area.
-
#Daddy_A sent me a picture of #Little_Boy_A (age 6) and #Little_Boy_A2 (age 2.5) playing games on the #Switch I got them. The younger one is gigantic. He's within an inch of his older brother's height and seemingly heavier. The older one is already taller than most of his classmates.
-
Mark: So has #GS3 replaced #Little_Boy_A as your favorite grandson yet?
Me: I can have two favorites, you know.
-
I had a game for #Little_Boy_A's #2DS in my shopping cart, trying to wait until a month after his sixth birthday. But the price dropped enough that I went ahead and ordered it. It will arrive a few days after his birthday, so I'll tell his dad to put it with the "don't open until April" gifts.
-
I just passed a mini-parade. The bomberos (firefighters) and one of Cemex's local concrete companies MADE SOME NOISE as they escorted Santa Claus down the street. I really wish #GD2 and #Little_Boy_A were here to see it.
-
Fourteen months ago, #Little_Boy_A was explaining to me that the games he wanted were not going to be available for their #Nintendo #Wii-U, only for #3DS / #2DS and the #Switch. Two weeks later, I bought a used 2DS at GameStop and shipped it to #AZ.
I’m considering buying him a 2DS XL ... does anyone know what advantages and disadvantages the XL has in comparison to the regular 2DS?
-
#Little_Boy_A discovered that his Kano laptop has a user-modifiable #Minecraft ... he’s been exploring the mods he can make.
According to #Daddy_A, there is also a block-based programming editor that has a couple of different levels of difficulty, culminating in some use of #JavaScript.
-
#Little_Boy_A is as thin as his dad was at that age, but a little taller from what I can tell. I’m hoping he does not go through the same level of “horizontal enhancement” in that #Daddy_A did.
-
#Little_Boy_A and his dad assembled his !RasPi powered laptop. The 5 year old is enjoying his learning-oriented computer. (I’ll try to upload a picture of the machine without the kid in the frame.)
-
Preparing for tomorrow's shipment to #Daddy_A in #NE. Superhero Lego toys for #Little_Boy_A (age 5). https://nu.federati.net/attachment/182200
-
I should probably walk to the store and try to find something for #Baby_A3. I normally try to send all three siblings gifts at the same time, but being in #PR and mostly relying on #Amazon purchases made it much more difficult to accurately forecast delivery dates.
#Toddler_A2 already has his gift, while #Little_Boy_A’s gift is sitting in my bedroom.
-
Forgot to ship #Little_Boy_A’s computer today. I’ll do it tomorrow. I’m going to ask #Daddy_A to have the five year old call me and tell me whether he likes it, because I don’t want to repeat the mistake of not getting enough direct communication with #GS2, resulting in no contact since he left #sonOne’s house.
