Whale

I wanted to do a post completely by myself. I thought of what to write and typed it all myself.

A whales  teeth is called a whalebone. To breathe, whales use a hole on the top of it’s head called a blowhole. Without a tail, whales can’t splash, so, all whales must have a tail. All whales must eat herrings and tunas, too.

Dad’s birthday list

My dad’s birthday is in October so Mama asked me and Kathryn what we should get him. Here are our ideas.

  • those chocolate nests we made that one time
  • a Princess and the Frog video game
  • a book about things people should stay away from. Some of the things in the book would be tigers, cactuses, monsters and dinosaurs with big claws that eat people.
  • a soft baby doll to sleep with
  • a fan in case he needs some wind
  • a cup to drink out of
  • a Dora cake
  • a book about the anatomy of the universe
  • a good necklace for boys
  • something that will help you with a good thing to do

Which one do you think we should get him?

I don’t want to sleep forever

Today my mom asked me if I slept well last night. I told her that I didn’t sleep, I stayed up all night.

“Why did you stay up all night?” she asked.

“So I could look at my clock.”

“Why do you need to look at your clock?”

“So I will know when it is 7 a.m. and I can wake up.” I told her.

“Why don’t you just fall asleep and see what time it is when you wake up?” I thought this question had a pretty obvious answer.

“Because if I can’t see the clock I won’t know when it was time to wake up and  I would sleep forever.”

“So you stay awake all night looking at the clock to so you know when it is time to wake up?”

“Yes.” I told her.  She didn’t seem to concerned that I’m not getting any sleep at night.

Aunt Darcy’s questions

Dad reminded me that I need to answer these questions from Aunt Darcy.

1. How many dollars would you have if you had 15 quetzales?

I would want to have more quetzales than 15 so I will win the quetzale contest that Buckler made. The number quetzales that I would have is 26. If Darcy had 15 quetzales and I had 26 quetzales then I would have 32 dollars.

2. What are PJs?

That is easy peasy rice and cheesy. Pajamas. I call them pajamas, I don’t like to call them PJs a lot.

3. What is you favorite season and why?

Hmmm. My favorite season is winter. I like winter because the world is almost turning green. That’s the only reason I like winter.

4. Would you rather have a pet gorilla or a pet porcupine?

Well, since a porcupine has quills I’d rather have a pet gorilla.

5. Please explain the process of making hot butter bread.

Alright so, the first thing you have to do to make hot butter bread ( or hbb ) is to get some bread. Then you have to put it in the toaster. When its all done toasting put some peanut butter on it. If you want to you can fold it or use two bread and put them together. And that is the process of making hot butter bread.

Why did the chicken cross the park?

A while ago I was playing at the park with Parker and Kathryn. Some other kids came over and started to play. There was a girl about my age. She asked me to tell her a joke, so I did. This is how it goes.

Why did the chicken cross the park?

To get to the other slide!

The girl thought it was pretty funny. I told her a bunch of other jokes but I think this is the best one.

Reading Process

Today I asked my mom if the book I was reading had precise language, emotional appeal, insight or content.

She wasn't sure which it had. I read it anyway.

I’m not afraid

We went to the zoo with my aunt Darcy. It was a lot of fun. I got to have a map to help us know where to go.

They had some dinosaurs there. I thought they were real. I was a little afraid. My mom told me they weren’t real but I didn’t believe her.  She wanted me to sit on the fence  so she could take my picture. I don’t think she knew that the dinosaur wanted to eat me.

Princess William

Most of the time I like to play with Kathryn. We will play games with Kaybo and Buckler. Or we will look at food ads and find things that will make her babies that are sick feel better.

When we play outside I like to be Swiper and steal things from her and hide them. Then she has to find them. Sometimes I will even where my prince cape and be a prince when she is a princess.

But I don’t like to do girl games. Like painting toe nails or dressing up in princess clothes.

For that she has William.

He doesn’t seem to mind.

Maybe someday Kathryn will have a sister.
