Worried

I am frightened. My Omi is not doing well. She knows it is her time to go, and so she told me to get a picture of my Grama Mary Jane and she will look for her in heaven. I told her I think they would be best friends. The tears didn't come till later, and they were brief. She is happy, I should be happy for her. She will get to see her brother again. I love her though, and I don't think that its fair that I got such a short time with her. She promissed to teach me to knit, but she gets tired some days. She already considers me one of her 17 "grandchildren." I am number 18. I don't want her to leave, but I know I will see her again.

Paint

I love the computer program paint!
We have it at school and I absolutely love it!

Here are some of the things I did on paint.

Omi

I have an Omi now! 

My Achievement Day group decided to do the Adopt a Grama program.

Every girl in the group gets an old lady from the ward to adopt as their friend.

I was exited, especially when I heard that we were going to have a grama alone.

I had met a  sweet lady in my ward, Sister Fechter. I asked one of my leaders, Sister Sweeten, if 

she was on the list for an adopted grama and she was. We drew names from a bowl and I got her! I was so happy

because I had wanted her. I called her that night and I scheduled to visit her today. 

After school I drove over to her house and I talked to just her alone for hours. She was an amazing person

and from the minuet I knocked on her door she treated my so kindly, not like a stranger though I hardly knew her.

She had many great stories, she loves the church very much and I could tell she is an special person.

When she read the title of the booklet I had brought, which was full of questions, she asked me, "Do you know 

what they call gramas where I come from?" I said no and she said, "Omie." I asked her,"Can I call you Omie?" and 

she said yes. She has tons of people who love her and call her Omie. When I left, she said, "Now I have another grand child!" She has a lot in common with me: she doesn't like purple, she likes bright,happy colors. She likes to write,and she loves charity. She loves the church, she doesn't like to wast time always watching the TV, she usually knits while she watches. She enjoys art too! I am so exited to visit her again, she promised to teach me to knit.

I love her already!   

For Gary

I love you uncle Gary, and I hope that you know I have great faith in you.
I know you can do this thing. We are praying for you.

Midnight

An old blind man sits on the dark curb.
He has no one and no home,
but he is still grateful. For he can see with his mind, he can hear with
his ears, and taste and talk, and he can walk and run, and he can live.
He knows that he is a child of the only heavenly father. He knows that his
brother gave his life for him, and he knows that he has been given the chance
to live on this beautiful earth. He is happy.

SORRY!

I feel like a dunce! I cant believe that my last post was CHRISTMAS, and I am sure everyone thinks I have forsaken my poor blog! I am so going to be more faithful!
