Winter Blues

It has been a rather mild winter, but I saw some signs this week that Alexa might have had enough cold weather. Not including the fact the she eats her breakfast each morning by pulling her chair right next to the heat vent and turning on the space heater to blow on her. This week her January writing journal came home.

"My family is going to Arizona."

"The sun is bright and warm."

"It is sunny in Arizona."
I think the kid might be dreaming of vacations in warm places. We had discussed a possible trip, and she seems to be voicing her opinion.

Alexa the Author

Alexa wanted to write a story when she got home from school today.

Here she is hard at work.

I scribed for her some and some she wrote on her own. Chloe help with some spelling too. She wanted to post it on here, so here you have it:

Alexa's Princess Story

I begin with a princess. She lived in a castle. Inside that castle was good. The princess loved to play and play with lots of her pets. She had lots of different pets. They were very nice and cute. She was never bored. If she got bored well who knew so I go on. She was a very happy princess. She was pretty. She loved to go outside. Her favorite animal was bunnies. Boing! Boing!


I am not actually sure it if is done yet or not as she had to stop to eat dinner.
