Well, It's been awhile since I've posted, so I guess I'll post tonight. But, just to let you know, if I spell anything wrong, it's because I'm really tired right now.

I'm doing school with my aunt this year, so it's a little different. It's HARD work though. I have soo many subjects this year. I have Bible(We're studying the book of Job), Current Events(I'm following the Presidental Election), Poetry, English Composition, English Grammar, Literature, Vocabulary, History, Latin, Math, Science, and Home Ec. It's a lot of work, and especially since I got behind. My aunt's computer was down so she wasn't able to get my assignments to me until 2 days before it was due. So, I had 2 weeks of school to finish in 1 week. I'm still not caught up, but I think I'll be back on track by Monday. I hope I will! I was really stressed Tuesday because I had so much work, and because we were in town, I hardly got any of my work done, so that didn't help. Anyways, I'm going to be at her house some this year, and down here some. I'll probably be at her house for most of October, but plans could change between now and then. There are 3 boys in my class, and I'm the only girl. AH (That's what I call Aunt Helen) says that they were really dissapointed when they found out I wasn't there, and their smiles dropped down to their toes. (Those were her words) She said when she told them I would be there for most of October they all got crooked smiles, and they all tried to hide them. Anyways, their names are Hudson, Austin P. and Austin N. My little sister Jenalee is teasing me about liking Hudson, and she hasn't even seen him. 

Anyways, we went to mall Thursday. I bought some tennis shoes that I've been wanting for awhile. Then we went to the fair after Daddy got home from work. It was pretty fun. Elijah wanted to do that thing where you hit something and see if it rings the bell. I think he wanted to do it mostly to see if he was stong enough to make it. He didn't even want a prize from it, but he got one anyway. We were all telling him how strong he was, but he said, "REAL strong people have to make it go higher than that though". But I could tell he was pleased with himself. When we were waiting in line for a ride he told me, "I sure hit that thing good didn't I?" He had such a big smile on his face...It was soo cute! Oh, just in case anyone's wondering, he's 8 years old.

Well, that's enough for now, and I'm really tired, so I'm going to get to bed. I don't want to fall asleep in church tomorrow. That would be bad.
