Today, I had fun playing in the rain.  It was very fun.  And also, I like to play dress up with my sister because it is very fun and also we like to play dancing in the rain and also I sing a song and its "rain rain go away come again another day you are very silly please come back.  Dear Auntie Barb, dear Miss Mandy, dear all the world dear all night sleepy tight in your own bed."

And also, Auntie Barb, I really miss you.  I made a bird house for you.  It is really very fun.  I like playing in the rain.  And Auntie Barb, can you please come over and help us paint our house?

The end.

I like having fun with my Auntie Barb and my sister.  Dear Auntie Barb.  I love you.  This is very fun today.  I watched Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs because it is really fun.  It was fun watching the Wizard of Oz.  I love you.  It's really fun to have some fun at Auntie Barb's.  I learned to play hopscotch.  I love you, Miss Lisa.  The end.

I am thankful that He gave me everything like flowers and trees and grass and food and rainment and water and He gave me a dog and back in Indiana a cat and He were very nice to me and He gave me a very special doll to sleep with at night and He gave me a special song to sing to my doll tonight to make her sleep.  It were very dark, but God were watching over me to keep me safe.

The end.

Rain Break

We are glad to be here and I am glad the rain stopped so that we can work still and I am glad sunlight is coming out to get back to work.  I am wanting to pick flowers and decorate the table and we can do that Sunday after we go to church.  I want to decorate where the table is with flowers and weeds and pretty little rocks and things from the trees like leaves and poke pokes and grass and some jars and we can do that for all the tables and we can keep one jar for the house table.

Table Mable Gable Table and we can go out to the restaurant and go to the beach to swim.

See you later alligator in a while crocodile.

The End.

We can work really hard so we can have bigger muscles all the way to the sky.  We could watch a rainbow light up at night.  Rainbows are God's promise to never flood the earth again.  I like picking flowers for Mom and I like drawing her pictures and I like picking up and staying in her sight and God has blessed me very well and I like picking leaves and when the flowers die I like to pick them up and make them grow again and God loves me and I like going to yard sales with Mom.

I've been good.  We went to the bank and couldn't open the door and we had to go pee all except for Ben.  We went out to pick flowers then we forgot to get them in the van then we brought them into the van then we thought "We couldn't buy flowers for Mommy" but we were joking but we are sorry we forgot to.  I love Mommy and she loves me.

Hannah started a fire yesterday.  It was a campfire.  I tried to stop her and it started and I tried to stop her again.  (Mommy note:  This is a classic case of passing the buck.  Bethany got the matches and had a campfire.  Impressively enough, it was well controlled and in the rock ring the children built.)  Charlie and Hannah were making their own campfire and I were trying to stop them, but they couldn't listen.  Please don't punish me.  I won't do it anymore.  It was so interesting and I were trying to stop them and they were just sneaking.  I were not helping them.  I were at the creek ad watching them.  It was really interesting of me.  Then I gave up. 

I took the dogs on walks.  I pulled and yanked and C.C. and Sarge couldn't walk.  So I sat down and it worked.  They walked.  Then I ran with them and chained them and played dress up with them and danced with them.  It were so much fun.  We danced while we walked.  We played "kitty cat" with each other.  it was so much fun.  We want to play that again.

For my birthday, I want a girl gun and a girl flashlight and a girl fishing pole and girl tennis shoes.  I also want a girl airplane and a little barbie doll house for my dolls to play with and I want hair barretts.  I want all of girl stuff, but not a lot.

Mommy took me to the laundromat today.  We had lots of fun.  I ran outside and played.  I saw a lot of things.  I saw baby cows.  Two of them and their mothers and fathers were at their side.  One of the babies was very lonely so the mother came over to see her.  They played butt heads.  Then they went on a picnic and built a fire.

We ate at a restaurant.  I ate cheese bread (cheeseburger) and no french fries but the second time I ate french fries and a hot fudge sundae.

I like drawing.  I made a picture of Mommy yesterday.

"Dear Mommy,
     I love you."

I am practicing my writing, but I need a lot of help.  (She says as she pulls out my checkbook because "there is nothing in there so I can write in it.")

"Dear Auntie Barb,
   I love you, Auntie Barb."

I don't want to say anything else so The End.

I like to play with my brother and my sister. We play tic tac toe and play with the bad war to beat them up. I like to pick up logs to build muscles. I like to color with my dad and do my homework. I like to pick flowers and I like to pick lots of flowers. I like to have fun. I like to play in the forest and sing to the birds. I like Dad’s drawing. Make sure you put that in. I like to run. I love Mommy and Daddy and all of my friends. I like to read with my mommy and I like to pick flowers for my mommy.


Today I had to walk in the water with my mommy and she was helping me swim to learn. I liked it it. Is was really fun. So, first of all, we went to play then we had to leave for swim. Yes, we did. When I swim this month we went and swim and have fun and we had a lot of fun. When we went swimming we went to the lake for swimming it wasn’t very cold. We wore a skirt and a shirt and bare feet and then I put on shoes.

I had fun once again and again and again and again and I had to do more swimming and it was really fun and we were really close to getting rabbit feed but we couldn't because they were already closed and we went home and had to take showers.

Today I rested, run, play, eat, drink, and I think I was working.  I did schoolwork today.  I practiced my writing and I ran through the woods again one more time.  We had pancakes for breakfast and bean soup for lunch.  Mommy made granola.

The goats got loose and unchained and Lucy ran free and I chased Zorro for a while.  All the goats got examined.  That is why they were all chained up to begin with.  Except for Zorro.  He's too fast.  The chickens decided that they were loose and they are always loose.  Because the dogs have to get hooked up at night.

We are going to a meeting right now.  We are going to a meeting with mommies and babies.  I like babies.  Because mommies have babies I can ask mommies if I can touch their babies. 

I found two new friends.  They are friend cows.  I found them behind the laundromat.

Mommy needs to untie my shoe.

Why we work

We have been doing work and why we have been doing work is we want bigger muscles and that is why we are doing work is why we want bigger muscles. Because we want bigger muscles is because we want to grow.
We’ve been working really hard climbing trees in the woods. I’ve also been picking flowers for Mommy and for my friends one time. I’ve also been having picnics in the woods and throwing rocks at bad animals. I want to go hunting this year with Mommy. I want to go fishing today. I want a pink gun that was at that store when we were getting the radio.
I have been hunting for deer. I get sticks and try to poke them to kill them to find them later. I haven’t gotten any yet. I haven’t seen any deer yet, but I have seen wolves and coyotes.
I love my Mommy. I love my Daddy.
God has blessed me by giving me food, water, and blessed everyone.
