Learning To Type

Dear Grandma and Grandpa Robbins,

I miss you. I can’t wait until this summer because you will be coming home. I hope you’ve had a good mission. I don’t actually know if I want to go on a mission or not. I don’t know if I want to leave family because I love them a lot.

Today I learned how to type. I only have to look at the keyboard for just one minute and then I do the rest without looking at the keyboard. It’s fun to type. Now that I can type I can type you letters whenever I want to.

Tomorrow I’m turning seven. Tomorrow is my brother’s basketball game too. I wish you could be here for all of it. It’s going to be a nice day. Me and my dad and my brother are going to play out in the snow. I don’t actually know if we are but I’m going to try!

Last night I wrote a blog. You should go look at it. It’s really funny. It’s about making habits and me earning $100.

Me and Love played horsy together tonight. I drug her around the house on a little pony. We had lots of fun together until finally she didn’t want to play with me anymore and she got into my brother’s toothpaste. She got it on the bottle, on the sink, in her hair and on my pink pony. My brother didn’t want to clean it up but my mom made him. It was funny and I didn’t feel bad for him at all. While he was cleaning it up I was writing all about it!

Kate's Babysitting Chores

Kate doesn’t want to blog today so I’m guest blogging for her.

Kate had her book club today. We didn’t get the book until an hour before it started and I was sure she wouldn’t finish it but she read the whole thing in 30 minutes! Yes, it was a short Magic Treehouse chapter book but she’s only 6 years old you know. I was very impressed!

I wasn’t feeling well today and I needed a nap. Love had already taken an early nap so Kate offered to baby sit for me. She did such a good job playing with the baby and making her happy and that made me happy! She did a puzzle with her and played house and then watched a movie.

Kate joins us:

Today I babysat my sister while my Mom and brother were sleeping. In the middle of the movie she started getting fussy so I asked her if she had a stinky diaper and she said NO! The only reason she was crying was because she was sick or she’s growing a new tooth. Then she started pounding on my Mom’s door so I hurried and got her and brought her back. Then my Mom woke up because she started crying even louder when she fell and bonked her head on the floor. My Mom gave me a dollar for babysitting.

That’s the end of Kate’s lovely true story of babysitting her sister.

Daddy's Trip Home

My Dad just barely came home and he’s not leaving for a long, long, long time and that means forever! We went to nickel arcade, we went swimming and that’s all we did fun. The best thing I like about having him home is he can fix our bicycle tires that keep popping. And I like him home because he likes watching movies with me and my Mom never does because she says she’s too busy to watch movies. She’s busy blogging, actually not blogging but cleaning the house that is a pig sty. It’s like a pig’s home with mud because there is mud on the ground and toys and a baby sister making the messes that we have to clean up all day long. That’s the lovely ending of Kate’s true story.
