The Pillow....

Today, I finished my very first pillow. It has a little embroidered
bird surrounded by two plants. I didn't pay for the cloth, (my mom
did), but I did sew the bird and plants. I'm happy to finish, and I
hope I can start another one soon.

The next door neighbors


Meet Taillow and Swellow. They are my next door neighbors. Well, actually, they live under my A.C.. I'm no expert, but I think that they are sparrows. In the morning, they drive me nuts, but I still like them. Taillow is the female and Swellow is the male.

The Schwa was Here



This is the first of many books that I will be writing about. It is titled "The Schwa was Here" and was written by Neal Shusterman. Calvin Schwa a.k.a. "The Schwa" is a lonely boy in the Bronx. His mother disappeared and his father is disabled after a fall off a ladder. He has strange powers that let him blend in to anything. Soon, he meets Antsy Bonano ( actually his first name is really Anthony, but in the story he is called "Antsy.") Together, they conduct some pretty strange experiments, and the result of them is that only 1 out of 5 people notice The Schwa.
I think it was a really good book.

Huge Towers of Blocks!

One of my sister's favorite pass-times is building towers with building blocks. When she does, the towers reach over three feet! Anyway, I just thought this was really cool.
