Thank you again for your kindness; Lysander is delighted by the kaleidoscope, and greatly enjoyed your note. You chose well - he enjoys toys like this, with intricacies and puzzle-like qualities.

May I ask - was the gift yours before this, or did it belong to another child? The trinkets that are passed down always seem to make the best-loved toys.

The rest of my evening went by smoothly; I hope the same can be said for yourself.
