My Dad and
Kim got married

so much I can’t keep

 count.One time
they got married at Hawaii

 or a beach

 with a beautiful sunset it

reminds me of
going to Florida and watching the sunset.

The sunsetis like I saw a red hot ball turning

orange and setting or a ball of fire going
in the water.Then, we
went to South Dakota and went to and on devils

 tower I went the highest.Hop, skip,
and wow you could see everything from here!The

 view
was beautiful I had a great time.

 Hope you like the view.I saw red,
green, blue, black, (for some reason)

 gray, and white.I was so
high I felt I was walking up and down in midair.

School is the
best place I’ve
ever been.Me?I always
loved school, I never hated

 specials, my classes or my

classmates.Never have
I been engaged for such learning.

My teacher like a math whiz, 5^th
grade just might be the best year

 of elementary school.

Friendship isn't always easily described. The Eskimos, they say, have a hundred different words for snow. Unfortunately, the English language isn't quite as innovative, though it has vast opportunities to differentiate meaning. Certainly, Love is one of those opportunities. And so, too, is Friendship.

 Going Tubing by Gavin young 9-23-13

I slunk down into my seat embarrassed I started on my homework looking around yet i was the only one doing my homework last minute like a wierdo. As I finished my homework  Faith and Isyss watched me. I felt like a fog everyone could see going across the classroom like a class clown. Then i felt like my old self breaking through the portal pulling me closer to embarrassment. Finally I was free.

yesterday

I walked out of the little apartment looking around nervously. As I was walking the wind touled my hair this way and that. It was like a tornado. 15 minutes earlier my grandma called saying “Hi! we had a power outage can you guys come and stay over tonight?” I over heard my grandma talking my moms phone lets me do that. Then my mom said “we are happy to come over tonight of course we will come we are on our way.”  Look at us now late it’s already have been 15 minutes since we waited to go until it has been 5:30. It was a hustle trying to get the leash on my dog and getting him out the house since he hates going on a leash but he was delighted to hear about the car ride to my grandmas house. When we finally all squished in the beat up car we set our destination for my grandmas house. It seemed like we were driving for hours in pouring rain but it was only half an hour. Finally we approached the pitch black house. When we got in my dog started shaking and whining from the darkness i tried to comfort him but it was no use. When we got into the house we all of a sudden i heard noises and thought the t.v’s were on it was just the light that was off. So as my mom was trying to get the leash off my dog i went to my grandpas room he was sitting in pitch black sitting in his favorite green old chair staring at his portable battery operated t.v. When he realized scout (my dog) was trying to get in his lap he looked up and saw me standing in the doorway waving with a crooked smile as my mom walked by and said hi to my grandpa and walked into the living room where my grandma and great grandma were . My grandpa said “Hello” then went back staring at his t.v clicking buttons trying to get the screen back to normal not staticky. When  i left i went straight into the living room no fidgeting finding my mom sitting on the couch and  my great grandma was practically a blob of blackness. My grandma on the other hand was going through stuff like it was going to be the end of the world. I said “hi? What are you doing you called us?” As I said that she turned around “I just thought we could use some company before i head off for work.” she said frowning with an unpleasant look on her face. “well...maybe we can stay you know...” i said jumping up and down. “i'm always up to adventure even if it is adventuring in a blackout!”I shouted jumping onto the old blue couch my mom jumped up alarmed by this and then sat back down and my grandma called someone mumbling some stuff through the phone stuff i couldn't understand. Although i could not hear them i thought i overheard my uncle. For what seemed like forever. Finally i got up and grasped the flashlight exhausted when i went into the kitchen and reappeared into the living room my grandma was about to speak and the words that slipped out were “Go tell your grandpa that your uncle said it would be fine if he goes over and watched the chiefs play” i did not say another word but instead just distinctly nodded my head  and took off when i walked in my grandpa just looked up for a minute and said “yes?” then i went into wonder and looked at the static even one minute could be mesmerizing looking at that thing. Then i said “um...maga wanted to tell you that you could go to uncle jareds apartment and watch the game”  when i looked up from the t.v my grandpa was clicking even more buttons it was crazy. So i took off again calling to my grandma “he's coming he's coming!” One minute later my grandpa came in and gave mom and I the portable t.v so we can watch the big bang theory till the t.v died. At least I had my fully charged kindle. So i played on it when it  did die. When my great grandma went to work at 9:40 my great grandma said she was going to bed we all said goodnight then laid down. Ten minutes later we were awoken by a loud noise from the t.v along with the lights. There was power! “I could charge my computer now!” i said.

Today

 My Monkey

 The suns rays were attacking me as I lay in my bunk- bed. I was on the bottom bunk where I kept all of my stuffed animals,instead of on the top bunk where my bed was.The only problem with this was that I was buried in stuffed animals.The only stuffed animal that was not there was my Monkey.  I uncovered myself and sprinted up my big blue slide that was my only way up to the top of the bunk bed.I scrambled through my blankets only to see he was not there.

‘Cameron!’ where's my monkey?’

‘He was on my bed and now hes gone!’I panicked and then as quick as I could I slide down my big blue slide. I ran to my bottom bunk then I digged and digged some more until I  knew all too well that my monkey was gone.’Where could he be I muttered to myself’.

‘Nonnie’ I said a while later. ‘Do you know where my monkey is?’ I tried to hold back my tears, but it felt like I was going to explode if I didn’t cry.  ‘Its not like it grow feet and walked ’ she said with a reassuring smile.

I barely slept that night without my monkey. If I knew the the following events that would come the next month I would have gotten a lot more sleep.  

 NEXT MONTH….

It was the summer and I could barely resist the urge to play all day and night. I had totally forgotten about my monkey until one late afternoon at my Nonnie’s and Poppie’s house.

‘Hey Jennavie come over here and meet my brother Optimus Prime.’my brother said holding up his yellow toy Transformer.‘Maybe later Bumblebee. For now you and your brother are on baby doody!’I said holding Jennavie in one hand and my Barbie baby in the other.  

 ‘After lunch we're going to play dress up.’ I said confidently.  ‘No there’s no clothes that, that BumbleBee can fit in.’ he said in a disagreeing way. ‘Real dress up!’

We began finding things to put on that would enhance the characters that we were dressing up as. I grabbed some funky sunglasses,a cute scarf and big black purse with pictures of tiny  red hats all over it.
