Wow! So much has changed since I first blogged about our new writing adventure. The kids have taken off and are so excited about their writing! It went from just a few sentences to now 3 & 4 pages worth of writing.

Jayda ~ age 9:  It was a windy day and a sunflower plant was bending in the wind. One of the seeds fell out and this is where it went........the seed went all the way to a park and there were people there. One little boy saw it and he picked it up. He showed his mother and father and his siblings. He chewed the seed and it was yummy, Jimmy said. Then they all went home to rest. Jimmy asked his mom if he could go outisde and his mom said 'yes,  you can.' Jimmy went to every single house and said, 'do you have a sunflower plant?' Soon enough Jimmy had 17 sunflower seeds. Jimmy went home and he told his family he got 17 seeds. Then he was so tired from all the work, he went to bed.

Kaden ~ age 10:  Summer is over and all the bugs have to go away. This is what happens to them during winter......some bugs go to the south for the winter. Other bugs stay underneath the ground. This time I'm going to Mexico, where its warm. So I got my stuff ( I'm a bug ) and pack it and left my house and went through the grass. When I went a little fast I steppend on something. I looked down and it was a letter. I picked it up and opened it. It was from a kangaroo. The letter said, 'dear Friend, are you coming to Mexico? When you are here, meet me at my den. Please come!  Signed Kangaroo. I was on my way to Mexico. I went to a fence and went under and saw a dragon fly. I said, can I get a ride on you and get to Mexico? The dragon fly said sure and then I hopped on the dragon fly's back and I said thank you and then the dragon fly said you're welcome. Then we took off and flew. It was only one state to get to Mexico. 3 hours later we arrived. the dragon fly landed and I hopped off and saw the kangaroo. I went to him and lived with him. The End!
