Here is a picture of the best Grandma ever!!!


We had a lot of fun with Grandma two nights ago. We got to spend the night at a motel and eat with her and just getting to have quality time with her. Here are the people that went. There was Anna, Ellie, Me, Esther, Cassie, and Mercy. Grandma is just the best, kind, neat, sweet, loving, pretty, awesome, nice, fantastic, and best of all she is the most giving person I know. I love her sooo much!!!


Here is a story I rewrote.



Free at last.
Be Emma Victoria Kruse.
One beautiful, sunny day, a mouse, who was running along a road, was trying to get away from a cat, whose name was Sylvester. Although he was running as fast as he could, the anxious cat was just about to grab the poor little guy, when he flew into a little hole and was safe at last. A few days later, he found, some scrumptious cheese lying on the ground, and rushed to eat it, but when he picked it up, suddenly his foot got caught in a little string and was stuck. He then heard some people whispering, we got something, let out the hungry cat, but before they did, he glanced at the horrible, rude, discussing cat that was trying to eat him before, nervous, but he new he had to, called and exclaimed. Hey you, can you come over here and let me out of this trap. If you let me go, I am sure to help you some day, if you show kindness to me. And the cat walked up to him and exclaimed, because why? If you let me go, the cat won’t eat me. Well, why should I let you escape, if I can have a wonderful tasty meal right now, and I don’t have to look for scrumptious food like you? But he whispered, please, please, show mercy, I beg of you. Oh I’ll right, but it doesn’t help me much. Thank you, thank you, I am sure to help you some day, since you showed kindness to me. And he removed the rope. And the little guy scurried to his hole.

But this was just the beginning, of a fantastic story.

A couple days later, the people who where going to let out he cat, looked over and new, that was the cat that let the mouse out of the trap they had made. So they grabbed him, and took him and were going to eat Sylvester. Now Sammy, which was the mouse, spied on the cat, and was frightened of the cross people. They hit the poor cat and falsely accused Sylvester. Because, he helped Sammy. Now the cat needed a miracle, and he screamed, “HELP”. And Sammy heard Sylvester and scurried threw a hole in the house and noticed that Sylvester was tied up.

But he new he could do something, because he had sharp teeth, but before he could run over and bite the little strings away, a maid walked in, picked up Sylvester, and zoomed out the door. She took the cat to a pit and threw the cat in. Now Sammy was very sad to see his friend down there, and ran to help Sylvester. He walked up to him and started to bite off the little strings, suddenly the strings where cut loose. So Sammy laid his head on the cat and fell asleep. Now the next day, the sleepy cat awoke, and noticed that he was cut loose, and then he glanced at the mouse, which was sleeping on his back, and new that he had saved his life. Surprised and relieved that he was free, and was very, very, very grateful. He was free ant last, and Sammy and Sylvester where friends there hole life.

The moral is- Kindness pays.

The End


When we had to do this writing class, I did not want to do it. I never liked writing, but now I actually like it. It has been a lot of fun doing it with Collin,Anna, Ellie, and my mom as the teacher. I love when my mom says, OK we have to go to writing class. It is just really fun and amazing that we get to learn how to write and to make better story's.

I agree with you about Grandma, she is the best!! And that is a really pretty picture of her too.
Very good story as well Emma! Did you know we had a cat named Sylvester? I don't think he had a buddy named Sammy though...maybe...come to think of it I never did ask him!
Love you, keep writing those great stories!
