Grace has been writing news articles for fun! Her teacher says that these are great writings for her age level and that the mispelled words are phonetically correct and great attempts. Maybe we'll have a Pulitzer prize someday?? I'm so proud to put these on our webblog for you all to see! Cyndi :o)
Here are her first two articles:

The kids in September
A ride on a big wheel!
Playing on the train - the day John left for Kuwait
Yes, he is constantly in motion all day! He does sleep well at night though!
Joseph tries being behind the camera for a change!It reminds me of that picture of John in Calico when we were dating many years ago. You know, the little one I keep on my dresser. I snapped a picture of you just as you took a picture of me. With that perfect blue sky behind you. Is that a U2 song coming on - Blue Sky Mining?
Hope you all like the pictures!
The garden
The garden is growing so lovely right now, but I see cooler nights coming this week. Down in the mid 40s which will turn my sunflowers to mush. Boo!
The morning glories are very pale, pale blue with dark blue stripes in the usual star pattern. They always take so long to bloom but they are so cute! We had nine on Sunday morning.
The zinnias have gotten over 6 feet tall. I had to trim them out of the driveway and the sidewalk. They looked a bit straggely after I did that, but they are filling in. If we could just get a bit warmer days, they would go crazy beautiful again.
The roses put on a small flush of blooms for fall - the ones against the house anyway. I'm thinking our chipmunk may have developed a taste for the one in the bed by the driveway since it didn't do anything. But the flowering quince suddenly has a lot of new shiny green leaves.
And we have a visitor in the garden. Pretty yellow-and-black spider, but it's almost as big as the palm of my hand so I didn't want to mess with it. I didn't think spiders that big would make a web, but it did and it hangs out there.
