Note 21:
Cliegg,
Unfortunately, Anakin's 8 years old now….and he is the right age to start racing. Watto's been teaching Anakin how to run a pod….(Anakin basically already knew….because he'd been watching podraces. Watto's been making him go to podraces since he was 5.)
At first Anakin didn't want to do it, but now that Anakin's actually been in the piloting seat, it's the next best thing to actually being a pilot of a starship……so he loves it. I wish he could actually be a starship pilot instead of a podracer, but I cannot do anything about it.
Well Anakin can go a little overboard sometimes…..and he likes a good challenge. 6 million languages to him is fun. You probably wouldn't want to meet C-3PO J The only reason I put up with him is because he is Anakin's droid…..and Anakin's so proud of him. I think Anakin programmed some humor into him, because sometimes that droid makes me laugh!
Anakin probably got his smart side from your side of the family. I think he's so smart because of how force sensitive he is.
You'll have to tell me what it's like to have two teenage boys next year….because Rhun will be 14 and Owen will be 13.
Anakin probably is the only one who wants to become a Jedi. I hope Rhun and Owen can become pilots. I would hate for them to be farmers.
Well, so far Anakin has not raced yet, but I'm sure that condition will change by next year. I just hope he's alive then too.
Bye for now,
Shmi
