My Turkey

The following was written by Brother Bear (grade 3) for school on how to prepare a turkey.

This is how I make a turkey. First, I go to Safeway and buy a large 20 pound turkey. I also buy stuffing for the turkey. Next, when I get home I wash my hands. Then I stuff the turkey with the stuffing and pull out the wishbone and make a wish. Finally I put the turkey in the oven and cook it for 30 minutes at 90 degrees. Then I take it out of the oven and put it on the table and then I eat it. That is how I make a turkey. The End.

So Sweet

For the most part Brother and Sister Bear get along pretty good. Sister loves Big Bird and Elmo. I let her watch Sesame Street the other day while I was making dinner and it was really quiet in the other room. I went in and found her and Brother just sitting in the middle of the floor watching Sesame Street. He was talking to her about what was on. They were going over the letter "Y". Then later they came in and laid on the floor and colored....well he colored and she made some marks on his paper.

If only they could be so sweet all of the time......

Soccer Slide Show

Soccer season has ended for Brother Bear and now the wait begins for baseball practice to start. We had great weather this year for soccer. Only two rainy games this season and not too cold. I think we had a colder season for baseball. Brother scored 21 goals this season. He has quite the skills on the soccer field. And I'm not just the proud mom. I've had parents from other teams tell me that he's a good player.
