Description:

Private swap between kids at @gmd227 s home and @perkl8r s home.

Lets call this Round #1

each partner will send:

(5) Pokemon cards in good condition (senders choice this time)

(1) WISH LIST of other Pokemon cards they don't have or would like to get

I want to make sure that my boys have enough cards in good condition to send for this first round before we try to locate specific cards in their collection that they would be willing to share from the list your son would supply.

Once the kids receive each others WISH LISTS they will have time before Round #2 to check those lists against their own card collections before we even set the Round #2 up. If your family is like ours, we may not have funds to buy additional cards to swap and I don't want to let any of the kids down. (school expenses are cutting into this swap at our end)

Let me know if you want any changes or additions to this list.

My grandsons are very excited.

Felipe, 12

Felix, 10

Mateo, 6

Please add your sons name and age as a comment to this swap so my grandsons can get to know him a little.

My son's name is Robert, he's 10, and he looooves Pokemon. And Digimon, and Bakugan, and Yu Gi Oh. And LEGOs. He also loves animals of all kinds and they love him right back lol. He's part Native American, his tribe is called Abenaki, from Northern Vermont, New York, and Quebec.

wow, that is excellent information on your son. I'm going to print this and let my grandsons read it and use it as a guide when gathering things to send Robert!

As you can tell by their names, my grandsons are part Mexican.

My grandsons love cats and dogs too, but mostly cats because that is what we have. Felipe also has 2 tiny turtles he got for his 12th birthday. But I'll let the boys write letters to send along with their package to your son.

OK question . . . Just to clarify, is Robert going to trade 5 cards with each of your boys, or 5 cards total? Do they each have their own collection or is it a group thing?

perkl8r 08/23/2011 #

total 5 cards my grandsons will share

and one wish list --- please post any kind of cards he collects that he would like to add to his collection, not just Pokemon cards.

If he wans to write a note to each of the boys that would be wonderful, I'm going to encourage them to each write him a little message. Mateo is only six and I'm sure his message will be very short.

I should be able to get him to write something, but probably not much, he has trouble writing and gets really frustrated. I'd have him type, but my printer is out of ink and I can't even go anywhere else to print because my car got totaled yesterday afternoon. I'm sure I'll be getting a rental and the damages will be covered because I was rear-ended (and plowed into the person in front of me on top of it), but I have no idea how long it's going to take to sort it out.

I was sorry to hear about your car troubles, boy do I know about that kind of trouble. Our car died last month and we sold it to the junk yard this very week. We've plans to get another one the first of next year. Thank the Lord for the bus!
