A Really Good Try
I received this letter from my younger son last week.
I told him it was a truly excellent letter. He didn’t believe me, because it was unsuccessful in persuading me to buy a hamster. It could have been the best letter in the world and included chocolates, and it still wouldn’t have persuaded me… I’m not a hamster girl.

Big chuckles with the first line and everyone after.
Hey, I'm for him having a dwarf hamster.

Hamsters are actually pretty sweet as pets. A little smelly, I admit, but cute.
Your dog might be overexcited though.

That is SO cute!!! I'm not sure which part I liked better – "don't fret" or "keep this in your mind". Is someone working on persuasive essays in school? 😉

This was adorable!!! I love finding such special moments like this!!! haha i love that he was upset for still not getting the hamster. He wasn't fooled by you just like you weren't fooled by him.
Too cute!
