My blog inspiration was lacking today, so today's post is brought to you by my oldest daughter; the words are all her own and she selected the pictures as well.

Oh, pick that one, that one! My pumpkin had the tallest stem. And it was the most gutty and gross inside.






I think painting is cool. Because any color with a paintbrush you dip in is that color and then you get to put it on paper.

I like to play the Wii. I like bowling because I'm really good at it. Winning is fun.

Here's a really good one. I don't like when you say no TV for a week. I don't like it because that is my favorite privilege.

At school I like to do reading group. I like to do all my work. Today I was the very first kid to get done! I was just fast. We have a new letter of the week. Letter T. And I already knew that letter.

I like to do projects in the back room. We have really messy projects and cool projects. I've only done two that were really messy. One was making colorful fall leaves and making Christmas lights. That's all of em. We had two.

I kinda like it when we're just starting out the day. We get to walk in from the door from the gym down the hall. We get to hang up our backpacks on whichever hook we want. We walk over to our table group, take off our coat, put it on the end of our chair. If you have an umbrella you hang it with your backpack. Then we sit down, and we be quiet. But some teams aren't quiet. And--another cool thing about school--we have table group points and whoever is being most quietest gets a mark in their box. And the orange team--and I'm in the orange team--got one of the very first points.

At recess I play with anyone I want or I just play by myself. I like to do the swings and the jungle gym. I like to get a ball or a jump rope, from one of the teachers. I like to play with a lot of kids. Milla and me do the swings. When I was first meeting Milla we swung on the swings the very first recess. Two other people do jump ropes with me and their names are Tori and Shea. I play with Connor and Anthony. They are the guys I play vampires with. But we were Transformers this time. But today I didn't really want to play with them so I just...I don't remember. I just played soccer with William, Luke and Cody.

William is going to have glasses he said. I don't know if I would like to have glasses. I don't know what it's like. I think I wouldn't because maybe because if it has been there so long, maybe it would start to hurt my ears a little bit.

If I could go anywhere in the world it would be Paris, 'cause on movies I've seen that are in Paris, I like to watch all the fireworks and how beautiful it is. I just love the way it looks, and I love their clothes that they sell.

When I grow up I want to be a ballerina. During the day ballerinas get ready for their dance if they have one. And then have one. And I want to live in a house that has stairs. It would be green.

I want to be married when I grow up. And maybe have kids. Yeah. Yeah, I think do. Their names would be Ricardo, Ramona, Junie B. Jones, Jamal Hall, Martha and that's it. How many is that? Five? So maybe five. Or maybe I'll get less. Or maybe I'll get more! I wish I just said two names. Because then I'd just have two.

In closing, I leave you with a photo Beth selected from Flickr.




I already know which one I want! It's that one! A flower with a heart! It's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
