Today is Jims birthday. Mom is writing this because Christy is in Provo with Grandma Cosgrove. Christy loves her dad so very much. She still likes to draw pictures of him and play remember when. She still cares deeply for all the things that she has left from him. A special duck, a stuffed puppy and her memory books.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAD!

New school

I started school on Thursday August 13, 2009. I am in third grade. My teacher is Mrs. Calderwood. My classroom is in a trailer. Britten is in my class. Momma and her mom work together at the doctors office. I am using Crystals old backpack. Mom bought me a cute new outfit for the first day. Pink t-shirt dress, black leggins and black ballet flats. Crystal did my hair. Crystal gets me ready for school cause momma works. Crystal takes me and Michael to school and I get to ride the bus back to Alishas house. I am on chapter 7 in the third Harry Potter book. I like school. I miss my grandma cosgrove and my dad. My dads birthday is next Friday I hope I can go to his grave and leave flowers.

Pennies from Heaven

My daddy used to say that when he died and went to Heaven that he would drop pennies down. So when I find pennies I know that they are from my dad. After my dads funeral there were pennies all over grandmas front porch. Grandma let me collect them all and put them in a jar. I have added to it since then. Mom decided that we needed to turn my coins in. I got lots of money, over twenty seven dollars. I went to Walmart and bought a new bedspread. Its like daddy got me the bedspread. Here are pictures.
