There's a first time for everything!

Today I had a lot of fun! At first I thought I was going to be bored but it turned out to be a really fun day! In the morning mom told us to get dressed because we were going to work in the front yard. So I got dressed, grabbed the book I was reading and went outside. When I got outside I got a chair from the trunk of mom's car, then I sat down to read. Ten minutes later my mom told me to come with her. I went over and she told me that today she was going to teach us how to mow! I was excited because this was my first time ever getting to mow and she let me go before Anthony, haha :) It was totally AWESOME!!!!!!!! I was a little iffy and it was hard for me to push it but mom said it would get easier with more practice and when I use it more. Then Anthony got to use and while he was using it I read some more. After Anthony finished we took a quick break and then swept up all of the cut grass that landed on the sidewalk. When we went inside I remembered when we were little and mom had bought us a toy lawn-mower. When mom started mowing we would grab the toy lawn-mower and pretend we were helping her mow the grass. I told mom that and she said laughed because she remembered how sweet we were, trying to help her mow. After we took our showers we relaxed with a movie, we decided to watch the first Harry Potter and while we were eating dessert my tooth fell out! You may think that I am talking about a tooth from my other blog but it was a different tooth, and then the next morning I lost another tooth! I asked mom why all my teeth are falling out and she said because it was time. I always was a late bird because my teeth were supposed to fall out last year. I kept wondering when they were going to fall out and I guess the time has come! Also another tooth is loose! In total this week I have lost three teeth and counting! I am also very excited because school starts on the 24 of this month! I only have 2 more weeks of freedom and then I start the next chapter of my life as a 6th grader!

My best friend... BOOKS!

There were so many exciting things happening yesterday I don't know where to begin. I guess I will start from the beginning of the afternoon. I was getting ready for my Reading Club ceremony at my public library. Every year my library has a Reading Club for the summer and every year they have different theme. This years theme was "Deep in the heart of Texas". This year I was the only one of my family who did it as Anthony did not want to do it this year. At the beginning of the summer you get a choice of an hour or an individual book log. The book log is if you read picture books and the hour log is if you read chapter books and I choose the hour log. At the end of the summer we added up all the minutes and the total was 26 hours. When we turned in the log, the lady gave us the info about the ceremony. It was to be at 1:00 on Saturday and I was excited! At the ceremony they gave the top readers a really nice bag and book. I was not one of the top readers and we soon discovered why. On the sign in sheet,( it was to make sure you got your stuff ), it said I had read 26 BOOKS not HOURS. It was okay but I was a little mad they got it wrong. When we passed the sign in sheets, the ladies gave me a certificate and a bag full of cool stuff. It had a ball, candy, a coupon for a free hamburger and fries at Carl's Jr, cool! They also gave me a bookmark and other cool stuff. Then they served us punch and cake, which was really good! They invited is to stay until 3:00 because Insights was coming to the library to give us a presentation. We did not want to stay until three so we left to go to the pool. After we got back I wanted to read again so I selected the 7th Harry Potter and I just finished it today. It was super good! I loved it so much that I opened up the Tales of Beedle the Bard and I finished it in a day! I love the Harry Potter series, they are awesome! To end today with a bang my loose tooth fell out! I am so happy and I bet tomorrow I will have another exciting and wonderful day!
