Alexander's Lucky Day

Today was truly Alexander's day. Here's his story, in his own words.

This morning I went with my grandmother to Hallmark and bought a webkinz there. They had some games there. I played both of them, and for one of them, I got a free mousepad. For the second one, I had to guess how many jellybeans were in a jar. Here is the webkinz I bought.
A few hours later, when I was at my house, the person at the store said on the phone "You won the game!" And I got a free webkinz. And I went with my grandma to get the webkinz. And when I got there, there was the same game, but there were more jelly beans in the jar. So I played it again. Here is me with my two webkinz.
When I got home, a few hours later, she called again. And I had won it again! So I told her I wanted a cow. I gave it to Benjamin because he only had one webkinz. Here are all three webkinz.

Mom's note: I think I should have him buy a lottery ticket tonight!! He is one lucky kid!

Wow that's great!

But I am still confused what a webkinz is. I looked on the website and all I see is online games. What does that have to do with the stuffed animal?

So now I feel old because I don't know something in popular culture, but I feel young because you Karen know what's going on and Owen is too young to tell me what's cool and what's not. Strange feeling.. Hmmmm..

Congratulations!
