It's All Mine

I love my room at my grandparents’ house because I don’t have to share with my brother anymore. So, it’s all mine! Being in my room is relaxing, and it gives me time to think, or I like to pray when I’m in my room alone. I have a sign outside my door that says “Stay Out!” and on the other side, “Come In!” so I have a chance at alone time.

My grandparents live on the lake, so I go swimming and jump on the water tramp. When I was little I had to wear a lifejacket to go swimming, but now I don’t--well, except for when I go on the Sea-doo. One of my favorite things to do is eat in the gazebo, a little one room building that you can eat and play cards in. Sometimes we will eat dinner in the gazebo. I also like to fish and play hide and seek.

I have two other favorite rooms in my grandparents’ house. One is my grandma’s office because I get to scrapbook and make cards. I have three scrapbooks, but one is empty. I’m getting better at making cards and scrapbook pages. On Mother’s Day I made two cards.

The other favorite room is the kitchen because I absolutely love cooking and baking. I love baking rhubarb pie, because you get to make this lattice or twirly lines made out of dough. That’s why I think my grandma’s office and kitchen are fun!

My most favorite thing to do is to be with my grandma and grandpa. My grandma always teaches me something new and helps me out. Now my grandpa, he’s a different story. My grandpa works hard and is hilarious. I love him. I am grateful for my grandma and grandpa, and they are the reason I love to be at their house.
