Lovely Ms. Grace!
ReplyDeleteBut surely you love your family already? ;-)
Abigail.
I do but I couldn't think of a FINAL thing to add. ;)
ReplyDeleteDear Grace,
ReplyDeleteI like your list very much! Although, there is one I would disagree with! Coming from my public school PASO ROBLES experience, I would say you would not like to go to public school, even for a day!!! I like homeschool much better!!!
Love,
Rachel
play a round of trivial pursuit with Mr. McBride?
ReplyDelete...As in, the 8th grade History teacher for PCA?Cause if that's who you mean, I had him too! He was a good teacher, although my favorite was Mr. Duby. ;) What'd you think of them?
Hi, Alisah!
ReplyDeleteThat's the one. He was always talking about Trivia Pursuit, and if I ever met him in real life I told myself I would challenge him to a game of it. ;)
My favorite as well, will always be Mr. Duby, though. He was an AWESOME teacher, and I think I have him this year...or the next. :)
Blessings,
Grace
Hi Grace,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading that list. Some of the things you wrote sounded fun to do.
When is your birthday? How old will you be turning (if you don't mind me asking)?
I enjoy reading your blog. I really want to get to know you and someday meet you!
