In case you aren't able to decipher that, here's a transcript of his wish list:
- a red light saber (I don't know what the "2 ples" part means)
- a machine gun
- the Rescue Hero jet
- a fire search and rescue truck
- the Age of Empires version of Star Wars (I'll explain)
- a remote control helicopter
Since ES doesn't read my blog, I feel it's safe telling you that Santa has been looking EVERYWHERE for the red light saber (we found the version that you have to flick-out, but we wanted to find the spring-loaded push-button version). Santa HAS bought ES the last two items on his list though. LW found a pair of Air Hogs for almost half the price they are charging on Amazon.
Anyway, I thought it was a cool snapshot of what interests my 6-year old.

All I can come up with for the "2 ples" part might be "to play with"? What think you?
That's to flippin' cute!
If Santa gets too hung up drinking a fruity drink on the sandy north shore, have him hit up his elves in the Midwest. The elusive gift might be shippable.
Based on my inherent understanding of the inner workings of a 6 year old's mind, I'd guess the '2 ples' means a lightsaber like Darth Maul's.
I'll check Target for the light saber next time I'm over there.
Okay, it just dawned on me. "2 ples" means he wants TWO red light sabers. One for him and one for a friend (or Greg). But Angry Rant might also be correct. Is Darth Maul's light saber red?
Oh and if it is Darth Maul, not gonna happen. They are at least $80!
Looks to me like "A red light sabre - 2, please."
Yeah, I think he wants 2 of them. Darth Maul's is red but very, very pricey.
We asked ES tonight what he meant with the red light sabers. RM1(SS) retired was 100% correct. YS wanted "2 please" so that he could have one and his little brother YS could have one. How sweet! ...I think... if giving your brother a fighting instrument to challenge him to a duel can be "sweet."
That's cool.
Looks like I need to take a 'inner workings of the 6 yr old mind' refresher course.

I know you all are stressing over the lack of Red Light Sabers on the island but today I found THREE! We went to the Air Force Base Exchange after stopping at the Post Office and low and behold! So ES will be getting ONE red light saber from M&D and YS will be getting some geotrax (he said he did not want a red light saber, and yea like we needed more geotrax but we need to keep the present quantity even :-))
Oh, come now.... even I can read that: "2 ples" = two please! Next time you don't understand ask a GRANDMA!
