My Nana’s Life

The last time I saw my Nana was when she was in a nursing home in windham watching television in a bed or a chair. But now she’s in heaven. Later this month she’s going to be buried in a little box. She went to heaven because of a bad desease that I cant pronounce. My nana is 86 YEARS OLD and is getting buried next to my dad’s uncle and right between my mom’s mother and father. I am still sad so much that I cry when I think about my nana for my nana’s death.

“In football maybe you can maybe you can’t go easy on us. No thank you,” Timmy boasted.
“I like when we face you it’s fun but it can hurt really bad is best tackler on the Jets maybe Jordan not the Jordan in your class I know that. Jordan on the jets not the Jordan on the pats. In practice Jordan is number 15 in games number 20 I love to play football it is so fun.”

Christmas Eve By:S.Young

Christmas Eve
It was Christmas Eve. There was only one, slight inch of snow. This is when it all started.....
My Mom was not home, but my Dad was. My dogs were outside and they were not hooked up, but they usually are hooked up. I was watching them.
They were wandering around the picnic table. They were being so good. I went in the house to go get them a treat. The treats were in the pantry. I got the treats and went back outside to give them their treats.
I walked out the door and they were GONE!!! I went to go tell my Dad. We started running around the house. I went in the house to go see if they followed me in but they were not there either.
Rosie and Daisy look very different. Daisy is a tannish, brownish, whitish, color. She is very timid. When you come up to her she will duck down. Daisy is also the runt of the litter.
Rosie is very naughty. She is the alpha dog. She looks over Daisy. She is very cuddly. She is a very dark brownish, tannish, color. Rosie and Daisy are Pug dogs.
I could feel my heart pounding. We got in my Dad’s truck. We rode down to the campground and walked around but they were not there either.
We went back to my house. I did not want to tell my Mom because I did not want my Mom to be mad at me. But my Dad told me to call her to tell her what was going on. My Mom and Dad were not disappointed because they knew that I did not mean to.
I ran into the house. I went in the computer room and there they stood, my dogs, Rosie and Daisy. I looked out the door and I saw a sparkle in the sky. I yelled to my Dad and said, “ Rosie and Daisy are in the house”!!! I thought, “ Santa brought then back and it was true he did.” I was so so excited.
Then my Mom got home and she was happy that we found Rosie and Daisy. Rosie and Daisy had to get a bath. Rosie and Daisy were so happy and they were so so spoiled that night.

I heard a scream and I saw her she was down near an old mail box and I slid down and said “What is wrong’’ and she did not move, not one little thing and she did not say anything.
Then a few minutes later she said “I saw some thing move.’’ I said “come on I am right here so don’t be scared’’ . Then we ran up the Lomaboob Hill .
In the end, the thing was just Hiram looking for a squirrel.Hirum is Roz’s dog and he is a bullmastif.

Shopping With Mom By: K.T.

Shopping with mom

“Oh what a beautiful day” I said as I woke up and yawned. It was a bright sunny morning. With clouds every where and the sun was coming up. I sat up and looked out the window.
Mom called me out to breakfast. My breakfast was good. I thanked my mom and went to play upstairs. After a long time my mom called me out. She asked me if I wanted to go to the mall. I sort of yelled, “Yes.” Then we got up and went out the door.
It was a long drive. I fell asleep half way. When we got there I woke up. I saw the huge mall. I felt tired when we got there, but I wanted to go in so I didn’t say anything.
We went to the boy’s area first. We always go there first. I asked my mom, “ Why are we in the boy’s area?” Then I get bored and I asked my mom if we could go to the girl’s area. Then my mom always said, “ In a minute.” Then we went to the girl’s area and we picked some clothes for me. I am always tired after we go.

My Story By M Wildey

My story

My dad said go ahead I could finally get my ears pierced.
I could fell the fear rushing in me and the happiness that ran about me. I got on the chair because my sister was to scared to go first. I picked out my earrings. The lady that was going pierce my ears got the earring in the handheld machine. The handheld machine got closer and closer. I could feel the joy rush in me and the pain. I could feel it. It was almost touching my ear. I was going to get my ears pierced. I was really going to get my ears pierced!
It was all rushing in my head too fast that I forgot that the handheld machine was getting closer- and BOOM just like that one earring was in. I barely let out a ouch but I did. She went over to my other side and she did it again, but this time I was more alert.
It was over. The fun was all over. My fear started to go away. But my happiness-that's a different story my happiness just stayed.
But my ears hurt a little, but since I got my ears pierced I was happy.

Aunt Bonnie By:S. True

Aunt Bonnie


Every summer I see a special person. It is my Bonnie. We call her Aunt Bonnie. Every time I see her and I know she is coming until 9:00, I wait for her at the door all day and all night. I’ve known my aunt Bonnie since Iwas three years old .
SoI had her as a preschool teacher. My school was in Madison Maine. When my sister was born she would take me and we would go to Mc Donald's.
She was always there to help my mom and dad. When my mom would work she always would take us

But she lives far away in Florida. Yet every time I see herI feel very excited and at the same time very jumpy inside. She goes to Skowhegan but I do not get to see her. She has a camp in Skowhegan. But now I do not get to see her there either.
I have not seen her in about three years because we moved to Casco, Maine she goes to Skwohegan and we do not go there any more. Plus she lives in Florida. I miss her and she is very nice to me. But most of all I miss her smooth cold hands on my face.

Plus her big bear hug. Every time I see her she always is very, very active and wants to play with us. I remember when I was four years old. I was in the grocery store and my sister Chandler was two years old and there was a cart of ice cream and my sister and i took one. My sister spilled it all over me and I screamed and drooped my ice cream and cried. My sister started laughing. My Bonnie covered her head with her hands knew one thing. EMBARRASSED! But I was still crying by the cart. Yet my sister was still laghing.HeHeHe!In grief Isaid HaHa.
