Summer Plans.....

My plans for this summer are to go camping! Every summer my whole family gets together and we all go camping at Detroit Lake! We always go to Hoover campground. I really love it there because its really nice being outdoors. I sleep in a tent with my children and everybody else has trailers. I think there is no fun in camping if your going to sleep in a trailer. Some other things we do while camping are boating. We don't own one, but we always rent one and it's so much fun! Most of the guys in the family just go fishing all day. I love to go hiking in the woods and find crazy things. One time I saw deer, and I took a picture of it. Seeing the deer was really cool because I was close to it. After lunch time there everybody takes naps. During nap time I'm going to read my book! There is nothing like reading a book with the sound of the wilderness! During summer I'm also going to be going to summer school here! That's going to be a blast too! I love coming to school because it's my get away from my kids, and I'm improving my reading skills at the same time! So that's my summer!

May And Me.....

May in this book relates to me because she gets all depressed easy. After her sister died she got all sensitive. Well for me after my grandma died I get really mad, or sad easy. I was really close with my grandma. Since she has passed away little things get to me. I'm also very sensitive because I grew up with my mom and step-dad. I never got to know my real dad until now. I get so depressed to the point where I think my life sucks, but in the end everything turns out going better. I'm unlike May because she decided to end her life by committing suicide. That's just something I don't think I would ever do. It comes to mind but I would never succeed with it because I just think of my kids, and what I would put them through if I committed suicide. I could never do such a thing to my children.

Prediction......

When Lily tells August the truth about herself and Rosaleen, I think August will be upset that she lied the whole time. I also think that August is hiding some things about her Lily's mom, so they both just spit out everything. Then maybe August tells Lily a little something about her mom, maybe shows her the stuff she has there.

Shaneisa Green....

I know this girl named Shaneisa Green. She is like my cousin because her grandma fostered my real dad years ago. She is 20 years old just like me. Her mom, Greta Green was also a real close friend of my mom's. They both went to McNary High School together and bullied kids. Shaneisa is so close to me now. Even though we are not blood related, we still tell people we are blood cousins. We are always hanging out together. If somebody messes with me or looks at me in the wrong way my close friend Shaneisa is always there for me. I am the only girl of 4 brothers, so she is like my sister too! I love her to death and she loves me to death. We can both count on each other whenever!
