Letters to Camp

Parents: Add your child’s name, fill in the blanks with X’s, cut and paste and you are good to go!

Dear Mikey,

Oh man! Mom said that I could not leave this morning until I wrote you an email. Can you believe it? I sure as heck am not going to spend a lot of time on this one! Well, I have been prepared for just such an “emergency” with my fill-in-the-blank email … so here goes. I’ll just put an “X” in front of my answers and I’ll be done in no time!

Dear ____________________,

Yesterday was a ___boring, ___exciting, ___wonderful, ___splendid, ___magnificent, ___messed up day.

Well, it all started when ___I woke up, ___I tripped on the phone cord, ___my boss yelled at me, ___Mom yelled at me, ___the sun came up, ___I got zapped by lightning, ___heard an incredibly loud thunderbolt over my head when I woke up!

Well, anyways, after I woke up, I ___went to the bathroom, ___tripped on your iTouch and broke it, ___thought about working out, ___worked out.

Then I ___took a shower, ___used soap, ___brushed my teeth, ___ate breakfast (at work).

It was getting to be ___time to go, ___late, ___afternoon, ___midnight so I ___went to work, ­­­___ went back to sleep, ___went to the doctor.

When I got there, I found out that ___I was just on time, ___no one else was there, ___I had a lot of work to do, ___it was actually a holiday, ___my office was closed.

But things got better. While I was there, I ___got a lot of work done, ___spoke to friends, ___polished my nails (ha!), ___had meetings (du-uh!).

In fact during the day, I had ___0, ___1 to 3, ___3 to 5, ___6 to 10, ___a bazillion, ___way too many meetings! And that was just during the first hour! Just kidding!!!!

Anyways, later on, I ___ate lunch, ___ate a snack, ___ate a cookie, ___took a long walk, ___found $10.

And then I went ___home, ___to the store, ___somewhere else.

When I got home, it was so wonderful ___to see Mom, ___to pet the dog, ___to make dinner, ___to wash dishes, ___to walk the dog in the rain, ___to read your letter! ___to get a letter from your sibling, ___to get a letter from anyone (even if it was not you!)

You’re probably wondering about the weather. Well, yesterday it was ___sunny, ___raining all day, ___raining for part of the day, ___cloudy, ___sort of cold, ___better than at your camp!

Well, that’s about it. When I think of you, I think about ___how nice it was to see you recently, ___how much I miss you, ___how much you dislike my emails, ___how much fun you must be having.

Love,

___Your only, ___Your favorite, ___your very best, ___Dad, ___Mom, ___someone else
