A neighbor's son celebrated a distanced 10th birthday mid-year and after several months there was finally an opportunity to give him a small gift.

He was in space-themed pajamas when we first met several years ago so an Apollo 8 Manned Flight Awareness Medallion with a quality copy of the original certificate seemed like a good candidate.

I enjoyed his rather poignant thank you note and thought others here might as well.

It's great that he seems to have drawn himself with the window open (open to adventures) and looking out/climbing out? the open window.

The drawing says a lot — without the words even.
