Safari!!!!

On safari I saw 50 elephants.  I saw cob, bush buck, and of course elephants.  It was really fun.  I felt like I was really cool during the night because our room had air conditioning.  I was scared a little bit because the elephants were trying to chase us.  I felt kind of different, I got a cocktail.  After we left Penjari we went to the waterfall.  I had a lot of fun.  Do you know why?  Because the waterfall.  You can't go to waterfalls in Memphis can you?  I also got to swim in the waterfall.  The end.  I saw two of the "Big Five" game, cape buffalo and elephants (both pictured.)  The elephants are black on the bottom because they had just gotten out of the river.

Happy Birthday Grandmommy!

Today is my Grandmommy's birthday. My Grandmommy is very nice, and
she gets us a lot of things. She is so nice that I don't know what to
get her for her birthday. She buys us our favorite kinds of cereal
and she lets us sleep with her. We usually have to take turns since
we fight over who gets to sleep with her, but I go first since I am
the youngest in my family. When I sleep with her we talk and then I
pretend I am a bunny and we snuggle up in bed and pretend it's our
little bunny burrow! I am looking forward to seeing her this summer,
I can't wait because we will have so much fun. We go swimming and we
jump on the trampoline. When it rains I like to play in the rain on
the trampoline. I love her!

My School in Africa...

My school is called Kara Christian Academy. It sounds like a college name to me. My teacher is my mommy. I have lunch time one hour after snack time. Isn’t that crazy? It sounds crazy doesn’t it? It has to sound crazy. For snack I have cookies, Cheetos (when our homegroup sends them to us,) or peanuts. There are four kids in my class, including me. Three of them are boys and I am a girl. In the mornings we do a bunch of Math, which I don’t like.

My favorite part of the day is French class, when I sit with someone two ages older than me. Her name is Abby. I just had a sleepover with her last night and she makes French a lot more fun. We decorate the date in French and then decorate the sides. I made up two things, we could do cookies on the side with a cookie date or clouds on the side with a cloud date. We also get to sing fun French songs. I know what butterfly is in French, it’s papillon. We have a fun day at school. Well, at least I do.
