Well, yesterday my family and I went to the circus! It was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!! The animals were such well trained and how often do you get to see elephants standing on top of each other ( Oh, and something really cute was that when the elephants walked around, they held the other elephant's tail!!) Then there were tigers standing on their hind legs and a man walking across and rope.....blindfolded!? Well, I got to yesterday! It was so cool to see everything and everyone did everything perfectly! It was chair grabbing excitement! Plus I almost forgot! There were Beautiful horse and ZEBRAS!!! Doing all sorts of amazing tricks! The horses were running around the ring and with one word, everyone of those horses turned around and started spinning! It was so cool!! :D Plus there were some pretty cute dogs who were going down slides and riding scooters, Doing FLIPS off of 10 foot diving boards into guys arms, jumping over people, jumping in wagons and then driving away! They were so cute! They clowns were amazing too! They were on trampolines and they would jump into hoops and they were really high! And there was a lot of magic acts! Dogs dispersing, humans turning into REAL tigers, an elephant dispersed! I have know idea how they did it but it looked super real! We had really good seats! We could see everything from where we were and we were close! (Good thing I wore my contacts! :D)
It was something I will never forget!

New school year
Okay so my family and I talked and found this school that offers you the chance to only take a few classes. We went there and checked it out and we all liked it very much! So, I am going to the school in the morning for 4 classes and then I will come home after lunch! And my best friend is going to the school too so I will have someone there with me on the 1st day! When I come home it will be around 12:00 or so? Then I will have a lot of time to do home work and other things around the house! I am very fortune to have this opportunity! We were going to do the other classes that I will need to take, at home, but I am taking all of the classes that an 8th grader needs to take at the school! So I am free to do anything once I get home! I wasn't thinking that I was going to go back to school anytime soon but we just loved the school! I love the idea for my school schedule! And I don't have to go to school on Fridays because I have co-op! Co-op is a place for homeschoolers to get more interaction with others and learn some more classes! Last year I did: Knitting, study hall, teen games, and yearbook! It's like a school for home schoolers to go to but only on Fridays! :D
So that is what's going to happen! I will still let you guys know what's going on in my new life!
Happy Friday to you all!

Sims 3
Oh my gosh! We got Sims 3 yesterday! Yippy! :D It is so much fun! And if you have ever had Sims 1 or 2 you need to get Sims 3 because you can choose the color you want for your clothes, paint, furniture, flooring! It is so cool!
And the new clothes are so much better! But I have to say, They don't have much of a choice for guy's hair styles. Bummer. But you can buy hair styles on a website! YYEEPPYY!!
Yeah so if you would like to have a game where you make a person and buy a house and create it yourself and start a family and get a job where you can really go too, BUY SIMS 3!!!
It is very cool!
My 2 brothers and I bought it together so we have to take turns on it! And it's annoying!!
It's like my brothers keep there eyes on the clock when I'm on because every time I get on, when my time is over, right at the end the say, "Your time's up!!" Right at the exact time! OBSESSIVE WEIRDOS!! :D

About the beach
So we went to the beach on Friday and found lots of crabs! Sam, my little brother, and I were lifting BIG rocks and logs to find the crabs. It was fun! Once we lift up this rock and we found a lot of baby hermit crabs!! They were so cute!I was hoping to find some star fish or fish but we only went so far out that we only found CRABS! We would find big clam shells and then we would put the crabs in the shells and keep them in their and look and them. It was fun. Then we put them back where we found them. Oh, there was this HUGE crab! He fit in our palms of our hands! He was really big!
There were a lot of people at the beach so we only stayed there for like a half an hour. But when we were walking back to our car, we found this really cool hiking trail! We all stared walking up the trail then my mom said that she was going to stay there and Sam and I went up a little more! It was so cool!! I want to go back there some time so we can see what the top looks like? We went pretty far up. And there was a part of the hike where the trail split into another trail but we didn't go that way. So now I want to go up that way! It was fun at the beach! :D

The beach
Today my mom is going to take us to the beach and we are going to do school there! Since my school work is done online, I can't bring the laptop to the beach because it won't work. So I am going to bring a book and read or write. I am going to try to find at least 3 different sea creatures! My mom said that it's low tide today so I think I will be able to find some creatures!? LOL
Well, I don't know when we're leaving but I will tell you about it tomorrow!
I have to go get ready!

Can you believe this heat??
Oh my goodness!! The weather is amazing... but too humid for me!! Well today we went to the animal shelter and I felt so bad for the animals because it's just SO hot! We cuddle cats, so you go into this room and play with them and you let them stretch their legs. Well, there is a rule about the windows being open because some cats have escaped! I know they don't want any animals to escape but... REALLY?!? They need some fresh air and it's so H-O-T!!!
Yesterday my neighbor took all 3 of my dogs for a walk!!!! (Brave lady!) They came back home about 45 mins later. Well, Murphy came home and started rolling on the couch. We didn't know why and we didn't think anything was wrong? We kept an eye on him though because he kept on doing the same things over and over again! I was starting to freak out because I thought that something was really wrong!? What he was doing was, Scratching his under belly and his eras! We thought that a bug flew into his ear when he was on a walk but it wasn't. Thank goodness!! He was extremely hot and red under his belly. So we put some special powder on the itchiness (Because we think that he had the same thing as Rookie had last summer. So we took him to the vet and he gave us this special powder for Rookie! It was good that we still had some!) The powder helped! Murphy is fine now and just a bundle of JOY!
It's almost dinner now so I must go!
Take care everyone!

I hate animal cruelty!
This is such a cute picture! :D
A couple months ago, my friend sent me this email about people slaughtering these baby seals and it makes me so mad!!!!!!! Also in the email.... it came with pictures! Horrible images!! I feel so mad inside when I hear a story about hunters and animals cruelty!! Why can't our world just leave our beautiful animals alone?!
Well, it's getting late and I just yawned so that means I have to get to bed!
Good night or good morning because you will probably read this in the morning, not this late at night?
Take care everyone

Sigh!!
Okay, so my BIG brother's friend is over and my mom and dad are going to watch an "Adult" movie and so I am all by myself stuck in my room!! :( My little brother is on a bile ride with his friend so I can't play with him! Oh great! Now my BIG brother and his friend are playing basketball outside and my window is open because it's SOOO hot! So, all I hear is "Dribble, dribble, dribble!!" GOSH! I feel like I am a prisoner that hasn't done anything wrong though. I am typing away in my room and I have Jitter out and he is a very noisy chinchilla!! (Sigh!) I just sighed.
MAN JITTERS IS A FAST RUNNER!! He just ran across my room in not even a second!!!!!!! Chinchillas are very fast runners because of their long back hind legs. Jitters is so funny! He has his own kind of attitude! He is so funny sometimes but he is also a BIG brat!! HE keeps on jumping up on my bed and then jumps down when I start talking to him. (WEIRDO)
Okay so I am going to be in my room until bed probably and it's still really light outside! What am I going to do??? JK :) I'm not locked in my room and I have to take a shower because it was..... Awwww!!! Jitters just jumped up on my bed and put his paw on my arm!! He is so cute! Oh, as I was saying, it was really hot today so I have to take a shower.
Oh, speaking of today! Today my neighbor and I made a lemonade stand!! It was fun but we only made $4. My friend kept on saying, "Please. It's for a good cause!"It was very funny but I told him not to say it anymore because it wans't the right thing to do. I really think he was making them run away!? LOL
Yeah so we did that for about on hour in the HOT sun! :D
I hope you all, who read my blog, had a good day too!

What I like to start my day with
I love to start my day with a walk with my golden retriever, Rookie! He is a crack-up! :) He is such a clutch and he is very clumsy! When he walks, his head and bottom only move side to side and his back never moves so it is so funny to watch him walk! I normally take Rookie in the morning and my neighbor likes to take him at night! She has a goal to walk him from Memorial Day to Labor Day I think she will make it?! :)
A couple days ago, Rookie and I were on a walk and he stopped! Just out of nowhere, he stopped. I was pulling him and pushing him! And the FAT 85 pound dog isn't easy to push or pull!
SO we were just sitting there and then he got up and ran to the field! (A big grassy area we have in our neighborhood.) And he went PEE! I felt so bad because I wanted to keep on going but he had to go Pee! Poor guy :(
Anyways I thought that was sort or funny!
My little brother has a 101 temp. fever, so if you could, please pray for him!
Also, my friend is having 6 BIG tests at the end of the year and she feels stressed right now, so if you could pray about that also? Thanks :D
Take care all of you!

Hello Everybody
Sorry I haven't been talking for a while! Nothing has been going on lately.
Well, there is one thing... My Birthday is in 2 days!!!!!!!! Yeppie!! :D
We are going to be having a family party on my real birthday but last week I had a party with my friends! If was really fun! If you don't know what to do for a game for some sort of party for kids, play "MF" And say "MF" to them so it will be a surprise! And believe me, they will be surprised all right!! :) What "MF" stands for is : "Marshmallow Fight" It is a game with little or BIG marshmallows (According to age) and it's like a snow ball fight but inside your house and with marshmallows!! What you do to surprise the people is you tell them to close their eyes and sit on the couch or floor. The you grab the marshmallow bag and start throwing the marshmallows at them when their eyes are shut!! It is such a fun game to play at a party or just a Friday night family game! You should try it sometime.
Okay so my teeth are better from when I last talk to you guys! The puffiness went away and they look great! :D
Home schooling these days are kind of cathodic!!! My mom has been getting head aches lately so she has been lying down a lot lately and my little brother has been giving us a hard time! I feel bad for my mom because she has to put up with it and if I were her I would tell him to go to bed and don't come back down stairs!!! I'm just kidding! I would never do a thing like that! But that's how annoying he is!!
The bright thing is... I have been getting my work done early this week!! :)
Well I have to go now!!
Take care all of you!

Okay!! Today I got my braces off!!! WooHoo!!! It feels so totally weird!! Now you guys can't call me "Bracie Gracie" LOL
My teeth feel fine but my gums are really puffy and they will clear up in about a week or 2. I am so excited!!! I just ate an apple without having to cut it!! It felt so good to do that again!! My mom bought me some candy that is very chewy and it's so weird to think that I can eat stuff like that now!! Yeppy!!! :D

Shopping
The best thing about being home schooled is after you get your work done (But we didn't today!!) You can go shopping and go out while everyone else is in school! :D No offense.
Today we went to a craft store and I got 3 new colorful yarn for my knitting!! I got salmon red light turquoise and light lime green!! They look so pretty together!! I am making a scarf for my mama!! It's not a Mother's Day present, I am just making it for her because she takes a lot of her time to work with my little brother and I! It could be a Mother's Day present... but I will probably finish it in about 2 to 3 months so I don't think she wants to wait that long! :)
What I am giving my mommy for Mother's Day is, a homemade coupon book for lots of things!! I work on it everyday and there are like 3o pages in it so I am running out of ideas!! If you have any, please give them to me!! I already have things like "I will cook dinner tonight, You get a massage before bed, Your day to relax and I will do the house work today, Your choose what I get to do" Things like that!! I'm desperate so if you have ideas please give them to me! Thanks :D
Have a great day everyone!!

My room
Okay so yesterday I painted one wall of my room because we didn't have enough paint! :(
But I still love it! It is so cool how we put back my furniture! :D My whole family likes it better than the first design I had for five years!! LOL
My chinchilla, Jitter likes it too! He is outside of his cage right now running around and exploring the new change! It's good for him and me! I needed a change and he needed new areas to play in! :) It is so fun to re-design a room! And it keeps you busy so you don't get bored on the weekends! LOL
It's almost dinner time, so I should go!
Oh, today is my friends birthday so "Happy Birthday Gemma!" I hope you have a great birthday! :D

It's getting BIGGER!!!
Okay so yesterday my little brother and I brought my dad down to show him the new secret fort! My dad said that it's a cool place but just don't do anything to it that will bring people down there and don't build anything because my little brother and I were thinking of putting some wood on the ground but I don't think it's a very good idea!! We might make a swing on one of the tree branches though! I think that that would be so much fun!!
My little brother and I put our ideas together and we thought of making a trail to this other tree, but there were a lot of blackberry bushes in between! So my dad whacked them down and I clipped things that were sticking out. It is so cool and it only took us 15 mins to get done with!! It is going to be really BIG when we are done with it! What I mean by "When we are done with it" is, we still have to rake the path because you will be stepping on branches and thorn bushes if we don't, but Sam doesn't want to do that because he said that it will take to LONG to do it! I told him that if we work on it a little bit each day, we will finish it in about a week! :D It is a really cool path and we are going to work on it more today..... well, right now!! My little brother is waiting for me to finish typing this because he wants to work on the fort!! :D Okay so now we have 2 forts that are connected!! :D
Have a great day everyone! :)

Our new secret place
Okay so yesterday my little brother and I were walking our golden retriever and my little brother was walking way behind me and our dog! So my dog (Rookie) and I went back to my little brother and and was looking at something in the bushes? I asked him what he was doing and he said that there was this fort place down there. So he started to walk down to the "Fort" and I stayed behind with Rookie. It did look like a fort but it was just an open area... I thought? He told me to come down so I told Rookie to stay and I started my way down!! There was a big area that was open and then there was another area that had a roof of branches and trees!! It was so amazing to see! My little brother and I had a great idea that it would be our secret hind out place!! We brought Rookie home and then brought some tools over to the place and started clearing out the branches that were hanging down from the trees! We are going to work on it again today!! It is a really good hind out place for hind-and-go-seek when we are going to play out side during the summer!! and only my little brother and I will know it!! LOL :D
I hope you all have a great day!

Re-designing my room
I love change!! When we bought my house 5 years ago, my room was yellow! Now I'm getting tired of it! My new favorite color if GREEN! I'm going to paint 2 walls of my room green and then, with tennis balls, I am going to make orange and pink pock-a-dots on the green walls and then some on one of my yellow walls!! I am so excited!! The after we get the painting done, I am going to put back my furniture in new places to just have a change!! :D
My favorite flowers are Gerber Daisy's! So I am going to buy some fake Gerber Daisy's and put them all around my room in vases!! Like on my desk and book shelves and dresser!! I think it will look great! And my friend might come over to help me paint! PAINT PARTY!! LOL :D
Have a great Tuesday!

I have nothing to say
Today is going to be just like any other school day.
We get up get things going, get our school work ready, then we look at our work say we need help and the day begins! When my mom has to go somewhere in the morning (Like today) we get to do our playing and electronic things then when mom gets home... WORK TIME!! :(
My new dog Murphy (Yes that is his name for now on) He is so attached to me! I love it because all of our other dogs follow my mom around the house but not Murphy! He follows me everywhere!! Today I was playing with him under our dining room table and he went under the chairs and table. So I go under there and he leaves. I'm stuck, moving like a caterpillar, I try to get out. Murphy comes back and because I'm moving so slow on my belly, he thinks I am really stuck!! He goes through another row of chairs and looks at me and starts whinnying. It was so cute because he thought that I couldn't get out, even though it looked like I couldn't get out, I was getting there! :)
So after that he came around the front he started sniffing my neck and he was trying to bite my neck like mothers do to carry there pups! It was so cute even though he didn't bite carefully on my neck he tried!! :) It was so cute because he wanted me to come out so bad!!
When I finally came out, he was licking my legs and feet :D
Okay, maybe I did have something to say? :D (Read the title if you don't know what I am talking about!)
Have a great Monday!

The days I want
Today my mom told me that today is what she expects to be like everyday! We get our work done without complaining and be kind to each other (Even though my little brother already has had an episode!) You would be amazing to see how much you can get done when you are home schooled. But there are challenges too. When I was still in public school, and my little brother was already being home schooled for a year, I never knew what it was like to be home schooled? I thought that you could just do your work when ever you would like to do it and you could take as many breaks as you wanted... not in my household!!! My mom has a lot of rules that we have to follow before we finish our work. Most of them do make since and matter a lot but then again, some days it doesn't work for me and others it does! My brother and I get along most of the time, but we do fight a ton! I try to be the example for him, but he doesn't see those things! Hes a hard one. Sometimes I just have to shut my mouth before something cruel comes out of it!!! He is one of those kids where you just want to back fire Right back at him! I try not to. I'm to mature for that! :D (Even though I do sometimes just to be the older sister!! :D)
Today is going great for me so I hope it is doing the same for all of you!

I still have metal in my mouth!!!
Yesterday I was suppose to get my braces off! But noooooooo I have a few gaps in between my teeth!! Ahhhhhhhhhh!! I was so depressed that I didn't get them off!! They put a chin of rubber bands on my top braces and I couldn't sleep last night because the pain would move to each tooth every time I would wake up!! Wasn't it hot last night? Well, it depends on where you live? I was so hot! I only put my sheet over me and I was still hot!! Then I got a drink of water and then went back to bed and then my teeth started hurting again!! It was a horrible night!! Oh well.
Today we are going to go to the animal shelter to volunteer cuddling cats and walking dogs! We leave around 10:00 and come home around 12:00 I believe? It sometimes messes up my schedule but I really enjoy it!
I hope you all have a great day and enjoy the sunshine!

Today...
I helped my neighbor with her yard work! It was fun and EXHAUSTING!! I weeded and raked and did her flower beds ect. I started around 11:20am this morning and like 20 mins ago I finished! Her yard isn't done yet but it looks better then when we started! :)
I do my school work on the weekends too since I started in the middle of the year I have to catch up with all of the other kids that are doing this curriculum! The bummer is that I have to work through out the summer too! I believe that I am going to finish by the the middle of September through out October!! Yeah, so I was suppose to do some work today, but now I am really exhausted!! My hands and back were aching and my foot was just a little while ago!
Well, I have to go now!

This week
has been one of my worst weeks! My little brother and I weren't doing our work so my mom got really mad at us and for the rest of the day it wasn't pretty! I felt really bad that my mom was upset because of my brother and I so I made my mom a card and it let some of her steam out.
Today on the other hand is going great! My little brother is getting some work done and I got a ton of work done before 12:00! I'm so proud of myself! LOL
My mom has had a lot of stress on her right now since our house is getting back together, so she has decided that we are going to take a field trip to the movies!! :)
Just to take a break from our school work.
I am so glad that it is sunny this week!! My little brother and I have been outside on our breaks playing badminton! It's a really fun sport to play! I have been getting better everyday! LOL
Well, my little brother wants me to go play with him outside now!
Have a great day everyone!

Back to school work
So, when we came home from Hawaii, it has taken us a long time to get used to the time again so it has taken us a long time to get back to our schedules! Speaking of schedules, today I didn't get much done! I got my math done and some of my stupid history, but that's it!! I'm very mad at myself because I don't want to be like this a not do my work and get behind. I'm not doing the WASL (A BIG test that lots of kids have to take, but not me!!) So when the other kids that are taking the WASL, who are also in the same curriculum as me, I get to do my work that week and catch up with the work that I have not done because I have missed so many days! I call them my lazy days! :)
When you are home schooled, you feel lazy all of the time because you are home and you can watch TV on your breaks and you always feel lazy!! My goal for this week is to not watch TV and work hard and not take as many breaks as I have been! And I mean this mom! :)

Easter for me
This Easter is not how I expected it to be. We aren't really doing anything with our family this year like we always do, because our house is not done yet. It's a bummer and I was looking forward to seeing my cousin so bad!! :( Well, what can you do about it?
I think we are going to my grandma and papa's house for dinner though? That's sounds good! :)
As you all know, my grandma is not in the best shape like she was 2 years ago. I mailed my grandma a letter (because she doesn't get many letters often) saying that I would come over to her house and help her do things and talk with her and cook and clean her house! She was crying because it she got that letter from me!! The reason why I wrote her the letter was because I was bored and I was just thinking of her and it made her day!! :)
I am just letting everyone know that, you should always spend as much time as you have with your grandparents! They are not going to be here forever and maybe not even until we get married! It's just best that we all spend time with our family as much as we can!!
I wish you all a great Easter with your families and friends!!

My new look
I got my hair cut this morning for Easter!! It's above my shoulders and it's really cute!!! I somedays don't have to do anything to it because I could just go to bed with it out and wake up and brush it and..."it", Why do we call our hair "it" It sounds wrong! Like we are talking about something that isn't really something... Oh, Never mind!! :)
As I was saying, my hair is really cute an I'm going to wear it down on Easter with a beret!!
I love my hair! The lady who was doing my hair showed me what 2 inches would look like after she cute it an I said, "Can I do 2 and 1/2 inches?" She showed me what that looked like and I said, "Okay." So she washed my hair and then we went over to the chair and she took out the scissors and I was like, "WAIT!!!!" I didn't want my hair to be really short! So I asked her if we could do 2 inches and so she did and I'm so glad that I didn't do 2 and 1/2 inches!!!! :)
Some of you I will see on Easter, but to the rest of you that I will not see I wish you all a great happy Easter!! :)
Have a great day!!

What we came home to!!!!!
When we were in Hawaii, on vacation, my mom and dad wanted our floors done in the kitchen and all of the areas that has hard wood floors. Our floors were a really light pine color and my mom wanted a darker color because we are going to get a counter tops in our kitchen, so my mom wanted the floor to match the counter tops! Okay... My uncle did the floors and when we came home last night the floors were beautiful but everything else has thick, powdery, saw dust from the sanding on the floor, and now we are wiping down everything... AND I MEAN EVERYTHING!!! Even upstairs there is dust, but there is no hard wood floors up there!!!!!!!!!
We have to go through every cabinet and just everywhere!!!
The floors are almost done and thats all that matters!! The floor are gorgeous, but we have to do a ton of spring cleaning!! My grandma is over at our house right now helping us clean everything and dust, I'm taking a break from it all!! :)
We were suppose to have Easter at our house with our family... not anymore!!! I think we are going to do it at someone Else's house.
Pray that we get our house cleaned up so we can live in it!! Our fridge is in the family room and it like right there so it's kind of fun to go to the family room to get the food out of the fridge but then again, it's weird!!

My vacation ends here!
We are leaving today! I'm sad because it's so warm here and then again I'm really happy because I miss my dogs and pets!! I was so sad to leave them!! One night I almost cried myself to sleep because I missd them so much!! My new dog Murphy...Oh, we changed his name to Pepe "Pep-a" That's how you say it! I'm not to fond of the name but it will have to do!! Right now my brothers are throwing Luke's socks up on the fans and it's on high speed and it flys up on the fan and then spins off and one time it flew into the kitchen and almost went into the sink!! It was so funny!!
Now they turned the fans off! ):
The name might not stay because we have to see him to really name him!!
I have to go now!!
Take care you guys

Okay...
the beach that we went to yesterday was windy, cold, and the waves were HUGE!!!
I went into the waves with the boggy board, but it was way to much for me!! My dad and Luke went there again today!!
We were there for about an hour and a half!! I almost fell asleep under my towel trying to stay out of the wind and sand because the sand was flying every where because of the wind!
The boggy boarding thing is not for me!! It's hard! My dad was telling me when to jump on the waves so I was watching him when to tell me when to go and so when he said go, my board tip went under water and hit the bottom of the ocean and the HUGE wave went over me and the end of thee board hit in the gut!!!!!! It hurt bad!! I didn't go back in the water after that!!
Sam and I went in our pool this morning, when Luke and my dad went to the beach!!
We were the only people there until these girls came in and were like laughing and being really loud!! My mom came down by the pool and started tanning...I joined her!!
My checks and arms are sun burned!! When I took my shower yesterday, my arms hurt so bad, but they didn't hurt when i went into the pool?
I have to go now!!
Talk to you guys soon!

It's so humid!! It's 80 degrees here! The ocean is warm and the place that we are staying at is really nice and Maui is a very friendly place!! I mean all of the people are very friendly!! :)
It has been really windy and yesterday it was sprinkling and we saw three rainbows!! It was beautiful!!
Thank you for your prayers! The plane trip went great! Once we took off, we were in the rainy clouds and then we were above them in the sunlight!! It was an amazing site! The only thing that I was thinking when I saw that was"God is so amazing and powerful!!!"
I think we are going swimming now!!

What the heck?
It's the 1st day of April and it's snowing!! Very strange weather!!
It's has been coming down for like an hour now! It's slower than it was when it started snowing though. My little brother kept on looking outside to see if it was sticking, it wasn't, but every time he would look outside he would say, "Mom, it's coming down pretty hard!" He is the cutest little kid! When ever he says something like that I always start smiling because it's so cute the way he says things!
Have a great April Fools Day (With some snow!)

CrAzY Schedule
We mainly start our school around 9:00 every morning. Sometimes if I get up earlier, then I normally do (7:20), I start my work before 9:00. I love to start my work early, because I get it done faster and have more free time! During our week, my mom and brother go to our local animal shelter and walk dogs and cuddle cats 3 times a week! I cuddle cats with them once every other week because I can't do all 3 days because I have to many things going on with work in all! Then sometimes we go shopping. That takes like 2 hours out of our schedule. And sometimes we have to squeeze a doctor appointment in for my Grandma because my mom goes with her.
My school work has a lot to do and my mom has to stay by my brother when he does his work, so if I need help with my work, I have to wait until my mom has something for my brother to do and then she comes to help me! I sometimes get a little frustrated because I had to wait and it wasn't working for my mom or brother either so we made a schedule! My mom work with me from 9:00-12:00 and then works with my brother from 12:00-3:00. It sometimes works but we also have to do things in our working time so sometimes we just have to work it out!
I love to be home schooled but there are some things that I don't like about it!

My little brother
has been so sweet this past week! He has wanted to sleep in my room with me and he has want me to play with him. Ever since I have been home schooled our relationship has become a friendship and we have grown so close together lately! I love it when he is my friend and not my enemy! But we still have our turn arounds! Like yesterday! :)
But after he says or does something mean to me, he always says, "I'm sorry Gracie. Please forgive me?" Last week he did something to me that really hurt my feelings and I wasn't talking to him for like 5 mins and he kept on saying "Gracie, please forgive me?" I didn't say anything. Then he said, "Gracie, say I love you?" I looked at him with a smile and said, "I love you and I forgive you!" What he said made me want to cry because it was so sweet!! I hope our relationship is always this way!!

The good things
about being home schooled are:
1. I get to be home with my mom all day
2. I get to start and finish my work when ever I would like
3. I have a lot more free time
4. I get to do things that I wouldn't do when I was in public school
5. I can do extra work during my day so I get more done
I love being home schooled!

Reading
is a great thing to do when you are bored or if you would want to go somewhere but you can't. Just pick a genera that you like and you will travel though the words! I am reading a book called "Just Grace" Can you guess why I chose it?
The book is about a 9 year old girl who list things that have happened to her about different topics. It's a very created way to write a book. In her class there are 3 other Graces (And I haven't even meet one Grace) And her teacher calls them all "Grace w. or Grace B. and then one of the Graces wanted to be called Gracie and then Grace S.,the main character, Said, "I just want to be just Grace." So from now on her teacher calls her "Just Grace" So that's why she is called that!!
I love to read, but only if it's a book that I choose!
Well, speaking of reading...I am going to read my book with my mom and little brother!!
Have a great rest of the day!

Our new dog
is the cutest little thing!! My little brother saw him at our local Animal Shelter and told me all about him. My little brother and I wanted him so bad that we made like 10 really BIG promises and put them on a contract!!! Our dad didn't really want another dog, but he finally gave in!! We got our dog on March 5Th this month.
He is a miniature Pincher part Chihuahua. He is really cute!! We named him "Murphy" But you might read another post saying that he has another name because the family hasn't decide if we should keep the name or not?
Well, Talk to you soon!

Today...
I started my school work at 7:50 this morning. That's a little early for me but I already have some work done and that's all that matters!! :)
I love my curriculum that I do because it's online and it teaches you a lot. It's fun but some of my days are really long because of all of my work.
All of my subjects are:
Pre-algebra, literature, 3 different kinds of language skills, science, and my least favorite history. That's all of my classes!! So now you know what I am doing these days for school. My mom said that I have to go do some more school now :)
I will talk to you soon
