New Dog

New Dog

On Monday I was walking my sisters dog, Carmel, and was walking towards the pasture when he growled. I looked an I could not see anything unusual so I ignored him, then my other dog, Buster, hair on his shoulder stood up an I thought to myself what is wrong with these animals so I looked real hard and I saw something move. I told myself that it was a goat and started down towards it. As I got closer I saw that it was another dog, a beagle and she is heavily pregnant too. I brought her inside and she has already stole our hearts and made her way into the family. so when we ha writing into the day on Wednesday she is who I wrote about.

String Games

String Games!!! 

On the first day of class we learned some string games like cup and saucer. This reminded me of when I was in the 6th grade when I learned what a string game was for the first time. My friend Courtney was in girl scouts and they had learned how to make things with string and I asked her to teach me Jacobs ladder. She told me that it was really hard and it took her months to just learn how to do it, but I was determined to get this right so she showed me. She only showed me once but I watched really carefully. I tried to do it and for hours I struggled with it trying different ways to twist and tangle the stringy mess. finally when it was close to go home I did it I completed Jacob's ladder. I was proud of what I accomplished and it went to show my  hardheadedness when I put my mind to doing something I'm going to do it no matter how long it takes.
