Will you please explain to me why you're in France, doing all the Frenchy kind of things that French people do, and you did NOT take me along with you? Yeah, sure, you have a French class, but still that's no excuse for leaving home without me.
Okay, I'll stop complaining now. I guess I wouldn't be much of a father if I begrudged you this opportunity to travel half way across the world and be in the company of some of the most beautiful women in the world. Speaking of, have you seen very many French women? They sound even sexier speaking French, don't they? Hey, could you send me a photo or two of some you run across? You know, say it's for your old man at home who doesn't get out much any more, and it would do his heart good to see buxom French babes as long as "the wife" doesn't see them. You could do that for me, couldn't ya?
Anyways, I suspect when you get home in a couple of weeks you're going to want to have wine with every meal. Breakfast, lunch and dinner. And maybe a cheese and wine snack before bedtime? I guess I'm okay with that. I don't care that much for wine, but I won't stop you.
Well, hope you're having a good time. Hope you enjoy Paris this weekend. I'm thinking about going to Paris, Texas, just so I can feel like I'm a little bit closer to you -- and all those French women. The stetson on top of the tower kind of ruins the effect, but I can handle it.
Again, hope you're having a good time, and thanks for all of the photographs.
P.S. I don't suppose you could bring me home a T-shirt? Just thought I'd ask.

Isn't it sad when we parents are reduced to begging for crumbs from our children?
Loved the piece.

Yes, it is! But to be honest, he paid his own way and I have no doubt he'll bring us all presents. Maybe a bottle of wine, probably not a French woman, but I'd be okay with a T-shirt.
If all you want is a tshirt, that'll make things much easier (and cheaper) for me! I was thinking about getting a bottle of wine, but you just had to use the picture of me holding the Italian chic's Marilyn Monroe purse instead of the one of me eating some pain au chocolate (its like a croissant, but has chocolate inside) ...
Sorry about that. I thought it was just a French man-purse sort of thing!
You went all the way to France to have a pain au chocolat ?
You could've driven up to Canada and saved on the Air-Fare !
Bon Voyage !
Canada may have a similar pastry and speak a similar language, but there's nothing quite like experiencing it from the source!
Merci beaucoup!
(Et le pain au chocolat, il était délicieux!)
