Mercy Fall I knew fall was coming because… On Sunday I saw colorful leaves on the trees. On Monday I saw dark red apples on the trees. On Tuesday I saw lots of decorations on houses. On Wednesday I saw corn stalks in a great big pile. On Thursday I saw people picking pumpkins. On Friday I saw kids jumping in piles of leaves. On Saturday I saw people making apple pie. I told you fall was coming! By Mercy

My Food Monster

a head like a crunchy taco shell hair like smushy cheese sticks eyes like two good green grapes a nose like 2 round red apples ears like 6 slimy chicken wings a mouth like a smooth orange carrot a neck like crunchy bread a body shaped like a yummy warm muffin arms like buttery corn on the cob hands like blocks of mini marshmallows legs shaped like red tomatoes and feet like crunchy green broccoli

I Like the Colors of Christmas I like the colors of Christmas, Green is the color of my grandmother’s wreaths Red is the color of Santa’s puffy suit White is the color of the shimmering snow that falls down Gold is the color of the angel topping my tree Blue is the color of the big presents Purple is the color of the lights on my peace sign I like the colors of Christmas By Mercy 12/10/08

Goodbye, sledding Good-bye, snowmen Good-bye, winter. Spring’s ahead!

Good-bye, cold weather Good-bye, snow pants Good-bye, winter. Spring, hello!

One load of laundry Two stories to read Three meals a day Four games to play Five trips to the store Six hours of driving Seven batches of cookies Eight thousand hugs and kisses Nine places to go Ten dishes to wash Then she does it all over again!
