The War started 3 months ago and my bro’s gotten unbeatable at the skies. My father continues making a great job with boats. During the first week of the month I saw a glass furniture for just 1 dollar HOW GREAT IS THAT!!I’ll give it to my grandma for Christmas when I get enough money , for my dad I’ll think on a special gift , and to my brother I’ll give him some wooden airplanes for just   27c both. Now it’s Christmas my grandma LOVES her gift, my brother is always trying to build his airplane but dad hasn’t come yet.
