Dear Parents,

I really want a trampoline in our backyard. As much as you do for me, you should help me with this problem because it will get us kids outside more. It will get our energy out before we come back inside (especially Luke), which I know is one of your biggest strategies.

Therefore, I know that they can take up a lot of room, but we have an enormous backyard so it shouldn't be that big of a problem. Yes, you're right, they are hard to move around, but once we get it set up in the backyard, we don't have to move it around at all. Besides, beloved Parents, we could replace it with our pole that is supposed to have a ball hanging from it but it fell off, then it wouldn't really make a difference in how we use the bigger area of the yard! Under your complaints, I also understand that the other neighborhood kids would want to jump too and we'd be liable for they're safety. But as you may not know, there's a much larger trampoline at our neighbors house and one across the street so of course they would jump there and Aidan's friend Jackson, in my understandings, is a very careful boy and appeals to mostly wii. The last bunch that we'd have to worry about is Isabella, Emily and Addy. I'm sure they'd rather dress up or play with barbies, it's a girl thing.

I give you much thanks for you thinking about this, I sure hope you will willingly consider having a trampoline on your property sooner or later, which I'm sure is most likely not!

Sincerely, Anna
