Seeing the balloons in person would be so neat.

Living in Iowa I have only had one visit to NYC. There wasn't nearly enough. I would have loved to take that walk.

Thanks! It's like getting a sneak peek at the Rose Bowl Parade Floats.

What a wonderful letter and memories for you and your children. I hope you save a copy of this for them to reflect back on as they grow older. So many times we forget what great teachers and motivators children can be. It's been years since I've been to NY, but you helped put me back there again.

As they say "Out of the mouths of babes" and that is whom got them all talking. I would be so proud of him if I was his mom to bring people together like he did.
