Carl, my 6-year old grandson from Austin, has been bugging his mom all summer to fly all by himself. Since Austin to Dallas is less than an hour nonstop flight, we decided he would come to visit us for a few days. So last Sunday this guy boarded a Southwest flight all alone and came to Dallas! He was so excited and was a pro, according to the flight attendants. I think my daughter, Kelly, was more anxious than he was, but she relaxed a little when she discovered she knew the entire flight crew!

| Thank you Kyle for taking good care of this kid. |

| Thanks to the pilots for allowing him to sit up front. |
To top it off, while waiting to board, he lost his third tooth! So the tooth fairy had to find him at our house that night! He was thrilled she didn't forget.

| And two more are loose! |
He stayed until Wednesday and we had a great time. We played chess and checkers, assembled Legos and went to the Ft. Worth Zoo despite the heat. He is such a big boy now and so easy to have around. I miss him terribly! Needless to say, I didn't get any art time in but it was worth it.
