Today I didn’t finish school because I have a fever. We went on a field trip to Adi’s gymnastics, it was cool. We got color-changing cups with their symbol on it.

Did you know that peace means with, something? Well I guess that means with God!!! Isn’t it cool how much the Bible says and how much their is to still learn about it and who wrote it? Whenever I read a good book, (especially when it’s with C.S. Lewis) I wonder about and wish I could talk to the authors, well this book is one I can talk to the author of, and guess what? He’s my best friend!!!

I revised my essay for LA today and I think it turned out pretty well if I do say so myself.

If God sent me a message like He did the seven churches what do I think He would say? Wow, that’s a huge question which, like many others I do not have the privilege of knowing the answer too. But, I can at least make a guess. So… I think He would likely start with… Do not be afraid, you need not be afraid of the darkness for you are the light, be strong and courageous, for you are My ewe and I am your shepherd, follow My voice and you will be safe, you have good intentions, but the flesh is weak. Take courage, drop your earthly possessions and follow the ways of light.

We are going to start school on 8th of Aug. So we really need to finish last year stuff. On Wednesday we are going to drive to Dallas, drop mom off at the airport and then drive home. After that we get a week or so without dad going to work. It will be fun but we will do a lot of school too. Today I did a lot of critical thinking and I only have like five left!!!!! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!! I can’t wait to say goodbye to the algebra and logic!!!!! But, that is pretty much all I really got done. We didn’t do together stuff today because we have two books left and in alone stuff we have about two weeks. But, never the less we will prevail.

Today is free meal at chick-ful-a if you wear a cow costume day!!! So I wore black leggings, black shoes, a white shirt, a walmart bag with spots on it, and a cardboard EAT MOR CHIKIN sign and, Ta-Da.. I was all set for lunch.

We learned about scientists worries about overpopulation in science. But I personally think that if God din’t make death v.s. birth rates match up, He’s got a plan for that.

In history we learned that the queen of England gave English pirates permission to attach Spanish ships!!! How does that even work? Aren’t Kings and Queens supposed to be against them? And how did she even let them know? I don’t get how that worked, isn’t that against the law or something?

We are behind in school and we want to be done with it, so Mom has started to just read a lot of our History and science so that we can finish sooner. We read a lot of poems!!! Mom is going to our Great Grandpa’s funeral and memorial service two weeks from now, so we are going to take that week off.

In bible we read about David. We read the story about the rich man who took the only sheep the poor man had. I’ve heard versions of this story, but I don’t remember it being about David!!! I’ve always known it as King George and the Ducky.

This week was a very eventfuI week!!! got my sling off on Thursday, yay yay yay. On Friday Bella and I had a sleepover and on Saturday the pool opened and we had a bake sale but it didn’t go too well but it was ok after my grandparents doubled it. I also got some school done this week. I only have two lessons left in math!! I am almost done with Wordly Wise and I have a ton of Critical Thinking left. I can’t wait till 7th grade, but I’m sure I can last until after summer.

Today Reed was better so we did history. The power went out for 15 minutes this morning, those fixing crews sure work fast. In history we learned that the French civil war was started by people and leaders fighting over religion. Again making it a law that you have to be one religion is horrible.

In science we learned about weather prediction. Most of our weather prediction is from satellites and radar. We saw a cool picture of a hurricane from above. Did you know photosynthesis means building with light?

Today Reed wan’t feeling well so I did history on my own and we didn’t do science, read aloud or bible.

I did the last quiz in math today so I am done with it for the year, other than summer math. I got an A+ too. I am glad I got an A+ I can’t wait to get my report card. I am glad we don’t do holding back in homeschooling, even though I don’t think I would get held back.

In English I did the pre-writing for a persuasive letter. It is really interesting and I think I will have a lot of fun writing a persuasive letter to “Sarah Sylvia Cynthia Stout” convincing her to “please take the garbage out.”

We learned a bit about Shakespeare in history. We heard a summery of one of his plays, it was horrible. We didn’t learn anything about the suspicions that Shakespeare didn’t actually write his own plays.

I think if Paul gave me some advise it would be to stand strong in the Lord, not be afraid, and to remember God is on my side. If I had to choose one body part it would be probably the heart or the head, ’cause without those where would you be?

In science we learned about extreme weather. We learned about everything from ice to heat stroke. Did you know that the sun causes wrinkles? I didn’t, isn’t that so interesting!

It is summer and yes we are still doing school but it is only until we finish and we only have three more full weeks. I can’t wait till we’re done, also after summer I think 7th grade will be fun.

We learned about Bloody Mary and her sister Good Queen Bess in history. Forcing religion is a horrible way to rule.

I answered the questions for pre-writing a book review. I learned about adverbs, I get all the adverbs, pronouns and adjectives, ect, all mixed up.

I think Paul was willing to suffer all that hardship because he loved God so much and he wanted to serve Him.
