Happy Birthday Nana!!!

Happy Birthday Nana, my dear,
I hope your day is great, & full of cheer.
I miss your warm, and cozy hugs of love,
Your divine smell, like angels above.
I wish I were by your side to celebrate this day,
To watch you blow your candles that drift away.
I miss you and love you with all my heart,
And when I'm with you again we will never part.
Happy Birthday Nana, the smile in my life,

A wonderful mother, nana and wife.

Christmas Time

Christmas is almost here
It will be full of fun and good cheer
We will have cookies and milk
For the guy with a coat made of silk
Down the chimney click click click
I think it might be saint Nick
We'll open our presents and have lots of fun
Until our Christmas day is done
We will do the same next year
Only if we have great Christmas cheer.

I Love Nana More!

There once lived a Grandmother and Grandaughter who loved eachother very much! The Grandmother's name was Jill but the Grandaughter Lexie called her NaNa. Nana got a new house and Lexie came over to help her paint it. When the house was finished Lexie hopped right in Nana's bed and they sang songs, told stories, and giggled the whole time. Lexie always loved visiting with Nana. But then somthing very sad happened. Lexie had to move to Oregon away from her Nana and her heart broke in half. She didn't get to see her Nana alot but they still love eachother and they talk to eachother on the phone. Lexie always will love Nana more than all the stars in the sky and more than all the tiny pieces of sand in the whole entire universe! Lexie will always love Nana more!

The Painter

The glow of the sunset, a winters shiver, an autumns fall and a single raindrop on a flower. This is what my amazing uncle Aaron can paint. I can paint very good too but not as good as him.

When Uncle Aaron paints it looks like the real thing and it feels like you can reach out for it. That is how great he can paint. He could paint anything you would want him to paint. I have never seen anyone as good as him. Someday I will be as good as my Uncle Aaron.

The Dark Valley

Once there were two very young ladies who were both twins. Their names were Jacy and Elly. Jacy and Elly loved to jump rope. They were in a jump rope competition and they were on stage competing between the fire team. All of them on the fire team were really mean girly girls. Jacys and Ellys teams name was called Hot Chilly Steppers and they had a team mate name Jocelin. So when it was Jocelin's tern to jump rope she was doing so well. The team captain of the Fire team was so jealous and tripped Jocelin. The Hot Chilly Steppers were not going to win first place anymore because of the evil Fire team. So they took second place. After that the Fire team said Nice Try Losers! The next day they had quit jump rope and joined piano lessons. They had never had any piano lessons before so its really new for them. On their first day of their piano lessons they had learned some new piano songs from their piano teacher. Their teacher said go home and try to make up a song if you can. So they went home and tried to make up a song on the piano. They both said how are we supposed to make up a song if we don't even really know how to play the piano. Well then lets just try. So tried and something amazing happened. Their fingers were actually playing the piano and it was a beautiful sound. HOW DID WE DO THAT! Asked Jacy loudly. I have no idea. Said Elly. So that day they were so amazed that the actually played a beautiful sound on the piano. Their mother Louisa came in the room because of that wonderful sound. Who is playing that wonderful sound? Louisa asked. We are! Isn’t it it amazing! The two sisters said. WOW! Said their mother. And the next day at their piano lessons they showed their piano teacher the song they made. Their teacher was amazed. Our song is called THE DARK VALLEY. Said Ellie. That day after piano lessons they entered a talent show. In the talent show they played their song called THE DARK VALLEY. They would be next after the man doing magic tricks. Then the man was done so Elly and Jacy got on stage and was really nervous. They told the audience that they were playing a song called THE DARK VALLEY. They started and the audience was so interested in the song. When they were done the man announced the first place winner of the talent show. He said and the winner of this talent show is. . . . . . . Elly and Jacy were crossing their fingers hoping for them to win. Elly and Jacy! Then the audience clapped for applause and the two sisters were so happy. After that day Jacy and Elly became famous piano players and enjoyed their wonderful life.
