Dear Frankie,
Our ship just reached the south of France today, it's beautiful here, you should see it Frankie. As we got closer to shore some dolphins started to swim along side our ship!
How's football going? Maybe when I come in town again we can hang out, kick the ball around, skip some more rocks, and take your mom out dancing! You still have to do your end of the deal and ask that girl to dance!
Anyway, I'm sorry to hear that your dad died, I know what that's like, my dad died when I was 10. But I'm glad to hear you finally told your mom the truth. I told you she wouldn't be mad. She loves you a lot Frankie, make sure you look out for her, and give her extra hugs, moms like that.
Hope all is well, take care of your mom and tell Marie I said hello. Oh, and here's a stamp to add to your collection.
Your Friend,
Conner
