Today is granddaughter’s birthday and she celebrated this
morning on her last day of school by passing out favor bags to her
classmates. They got a pencil, eraser
and some glitter putty. Yesterday she
was 8 years old and in the third grade.
Today she’s 9 years old and an official fourth grader. That’s our girl!!
When she got to our house she made a bee-line for the craft
room and spent the afternoon making thank you cards for both sets of
grandparents and her parents. While
doing this she also played her favorite movie on her device.
To top it off I joined her with some books I’d chosen at the library
last week, saying they were by authors of books she and I had previously
read. And James Dean was an author. She said just for me to read but I coaxed her
and we took turns, she reading the left hand side and I the right page. Before we knew it we’d read three of the
Dean/Litwin books.
She wasn’t sure that she liked the Tree House book though I
liked the friends’ ingenuity in expanding Pete’s tree house. It did grow like topsy but the moral of the
story was down to earth. And like Pete
said, “I’m so glad it brought us all together.”
