December, 1999
Hello again everyone!
Annie here. Well, I know it's hard to believe but my reign of terror and destruction as a 'terrible-two' has ended - it's in the history books, and possibly the record books. Mom and Dad are still tallying the damage but, if you ask me... call Guinness!
To answer the question that is surely on everyone's mind... yes, I've been a good girl
this year. And, if you want a second opinion, I'll be glad to give you one. But, just
to be safe, I sent a couple of hired thugs to the North Pole to have a 'talk' with Santa
- so, if you see Santa limpin', you'll know why. And when shopping for my present,
remember, I could send 'em to your place next!
My Mom still has me enrolled in gymnastics. I've now graduated from the 'mommy and me' class to the '3 & 4 year-old' class - not simply because of age but because of my tremendous ability (of course, the threat of hired thugs didn't hurt). Now my classes are longer and Mom gets to wait outside - and I have made an especially good friend, Charlotte.
I also go to preschool two mornings a week - I really enjoy all the activities and other
kids, and it gives Mom a break. Dad seems to think we're movin' a little slow - still
learning to share and color and stuff like that. I tried to explain that the other kids
just aren't ready for that math and science stuff - maybe next year.
Mom and Dad are also teaching me to swim. I'm fearless with my floaties on! I jump in the water all by myself and swim around the pool - even in the deep part. I really keep the lifeguard on her toes!
Hopefully you all have joined the information age and visit AnnieLand on the world wide web on a regular basis. If so, you'll be glad to know that I have an all new simplified url - it's www.geocities.com/anboytim.
Well, it looks like that's all for now. I hope everyone has a very merry Christmas and very happy New Year - and if Santa doesn't bring what you wanted I can give you the names of a couple of good thugs. See you again in six months!
Hugs and kisses... ANNIE
