The Typewriter.Well, a long time ago, inspired by Amanda, I had an idea that Trevor just might like a typewriter of his own. I mean, what could be wrong with a kid asking to write? He has been begging for one ever since he saw her post. The other day, we stopped by Goodwill to see if there was one in working order. Well, we found this one, complete with receipt, a ribbon that worked a little bit, and manual from 1982. We were also lucky enough to find a new ribbon for it on Ebay (since they don't make these things anymore). So for the price of $4, we packed it up , took it home, set it up on his desk and plugged it in. They have been typing away ever since...... stories, lists, little notes to each other and even a secret code. Really, the best $4 I ever spent:)

Guess we should have saved all those "old" things! Who'd have guessed?
