Vacation Orchard

Last week Mommy, Daddy, Zara and I went to Maine.  Aunt Gina and Kevin came too.  We ate lobster, salmon and grilled shrimp.  It was yummy.  One of the nights when I ate lobster, it was terrible (just one).  But I liked every other piece of food except the pasta salad.  It was terrible.  I had one clam of Kevin’s.  It was yummy.

I loved relaxation and watching movies in the car.  Zara was whining in the car.  She didn’t like it even one bit.  We tried giving her toys; she did not want them and just cried.

In Maine we saw a horse and I got to pet it on the side.  I also played with Zara in our house.  Our house had a huge lobster statue in a brown crate.  I slept in a tower.  Some days it was raining in Maine.  The other days it was sunny.  On the sunny days we went to the beach.  We put sun tan lotion on first (Editor's note: We did not put suntan lotion on our children! It was sunblock).  We made sandcastles and went in the ocean.  I liked the ocean.  The ocean was splashy.  I didn’t run into any boats.  I was always with Daddy, Mommy, Aunt Gina or Kevin.  Vacation was fun, especially the eating.

When I got home I asked Grandma if she wanted to go to Maine.  She said, “Yes, maybe next time I can live in the house next door to you in Maine.”  When I got home I was happy to see all my toys and I played “Applebee’s.”

I had fun in Maine.  Thank you for making Maine, God.

Naughty Doctors

I was in the car going to the doctor's for my check-up.  First they weighed me and then they measured me.  I weighed 31 pounds. I had to pee in the pee-catcher.  Then I got shots and I cried.  Then I got an Ariel sticker.  And then they put a Band-Aid on the shots. 

Daddy took me to Wegman's when I was done at the doctor's.  We bought stuff for stuffed shells and bread.  When we got home I baked bread.   I went home and told Mommy all about it.  Mommy said, "Oh, you poor baby."   

I was trusting God to help me be brave at the doctor's.  We are going to have shells for supper.  I have to go help Daddy make them.

I didn't like the doctor's at all.  But it was fun anyway.  And I have a nice playhouse.  Amen.
