With permission, here is what Nathan wrote to introduce himself to his Day Camp leaders this summer. It was a form letter with blanks to fill in; the italicized portions are his.
A Letter To My Group Leader
Date June 8, 2005
Dear Group Leader,
My name is Nathan. My friends call me Nate and Nathan. I will be in 2nd grade at school in the fall. I have 0 brothers, ages __, and 1 sisters, ages 5. When I am not in school, I like to play baseball, sketch Nature, sketch Spiderman, read and play Gameboy. But I don't like to sit around doing nothing. I am good at math, baseball and reading. I am coming to YMCA Day Camp Sand Point because I want to learn more about camping. At Day Camp Sand Point I want to have fun, make new friends, and help each other, but I don't think I would like to sit around doing nothing. I get along with friends that are happy, listin, help each other, and are in a good mood. Last summer I went camping, went to a rodeo, went river rafting, and a folk festival.
Other things you should know about me are I am 7 years old, I live on ** Ave, I am kind, I am honest, I like to sing, and I have 2 cats and 3 fish.

Why does that look suspisiously like a meme?
I didn't realize that it had been so long since I stopped by. I have you in Bloglines and they just notified me of this post over a week after it's dated. I hope you're having fun with your new blodding gig.
OMG, this is too ironic- Darian came home with a biography she had written and the last page was 'About the Author'. It was quite good!
I like that Nathan's peeve is to sit around and do nothing. I personally revel in it!
