My day as a Mirror.

     I haven't told you about that day that I was a mirror! Well then, let me explain. One night I fell asleep against the wall in our hall because I was really, really tired. In the morning I woke up and I was on the wall. What was I doing on the wall? Oh no no no, I was a mirror. I could still think and see, but I didn't have ears or eyes. I couldn't move, which made me upset. I like to be able to move.
     I would've cried if I could. What if I was never able to turn back into my old self. Then I saw someone looking at me. It was my sister. I was hoping that she knew it was me, but no she was just looking at her own reflection. She smiled then got something out of her teeth. She didn't seem to notice that there was a new mirror on the wall. She did her hair then shrugged and redid it. She finally looked satisfied and left. Then my brother came by and looked at the mirror too. He looked really tired, but he still told his reflection "Your looking handsome today Benjamin." He started to turn away then he stopped looked back at the mirror and called to my mom "Mom did you get a new mirror? I haven't noticed it."
     "No" my mom said. "Where is it?"
     "Its here in the hall."
     "I don't know where that came from. It's lovely though."
     "Maybe dad put it there." Ben said
     "Maybe, he didn't say anything about it. Oh well we'll have to figure that out later." This whole time I wanted to scream at them that no I was the mirror and yes it was lovely wasn't it? But no such luck they walked away changing the subject to breakfast. Later I heard them saying "were is Maire?" "Shes probably sleeping in." "Yeah she probably is." My mom had somebody go out and get me out of my room. They came back and said I wasn't there. My mom thought that maybe I was already up, but I was nowhere to be found.
     This went on all day and I had to watch it all. It was as if I was dead. Everybody was looking around like crazy trying to find me. Finally by the end of the day everybody went to sleep. I soon fell asleep and when I woke up I was leaning up against the glass and I fell through. The glass broke! I was once again in human form! I had all these pieces of glass on and in my clothes. As you can guess it wasn't very comfortable. I got cleaned up and and went to my room to take a morning nap.






 

A funny conversation

This is a conversation between a boy and me. We were doing an apple bobbing spot for a Halloween party. 

Walker: Didn't that girl come like five times already?

Me: She has a twin that's also wearing a princess costume.

Walker: Oh.

Later she comes again.

Walker: Do you have a twin?

Little Girl: I think so. Yes I do. 

Walker: I knew it! I knew she had a twin sister.

Me: I told you in the first place.

Walker: Yeah, but you didn't say they were sisters.

Me: 'slap my forehead' Oh my goodness I said the two princesses were twins. What else could they be other than sisters?

A question some people may ask.

Some people, maybe you, may ask "How did we get here? how did the earth get here?" Well I'll tell you.

Genesis 1:1

 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

• God created the earth, the heavens and everything in them in 6 days. On the 7th day he rested.
• He made the universe He made night and day, when before it was just darkness.
• God made all the animals of the earth. The animals of the sea, the animals of the air and on the ground.
• He also made all the fruits of the earth.
• He created man from the dust of the earth and from the mans body he took one of his ribs and he made a woman.
• We did not appear here like some accident. God has a plan for us and all creation.
• He created us for his glory and honor and not for our own evil desires.
•  But we messed up. Adam and Eve, the first humans, sinned against God. He gave them everything yet they still disobeyed by eating off the very tree they were told, by not to eat from.

     Everything was made by God. Nothing can really prove otherwise. People try to make up stuff to try and prove that God did not create the earth, like oh there was a big bang and we all came to being. They want to be free and they think if there was a God they would have to let Him be Lord of there life and some people don't want that. It's such a better way to go though, because we need him to guide us through our troubles.

Until next time!

Young Wrikis

     Young Wrikis is my owl friend. He's a great owl. He's brown and he has really big eyes. His length is about an inch longer than the length of my hand. He likes to fly and find things to eat at night, like mice, lizards and squirrels. In the daytime hes really lazy and that's when I try to feed him all sort's of things.
     I feed Wrikis crackers (Funny, that's for parrots!) and I'm allowed to give him meat, but I'm not allowed to have meat myself! I don't get it! He'll eat pretty much whatever you give him.
     I'm not sure how old Wrikis is because we just made friends with him. He's not even really our owl. He came to our house and just sat at outside our back door and waited. When we opened the door, he flew in! Soon we got used to him coming in and out of our doors. Crazy, but we did get used to it. He started to sleep out in my cottage in the day. He takes naps on my extra bed. That's when we started to feed him and let him out at night and whenever he wanted or needed to. Wrikis likes to be petted and snuggled. He soon became part of the family. Movies  made him go crazy! It is way to bright for him. So we didn't do that. He also makes lots of owl noises like hooting and a few other sounds that I don't know how to explain. I was going to take a picture, but our camera is broken. Sorry, I'll get a picture though.
     So that's Wrikis. He's pretty cool. I like him. He makes me smile : )

This video is sooooo funny. It's kind of sad, but I love it!
The first time I saw this video was at my house late at night when my brother in law, Daniel, got it up on youtube for some of my family to watch. I was in the other room when I heard someone saying "blueberries blueberries then I heard a crash!" It stopped and I heard it again. Everybody was laughing so hard I had to go in and see. While they were still laughing Daniel replayed it. As I watched it I could see why they were laughing so hard. Also we were really tired so that probably helped get us laughing.
I hope you people like this video because I enjoy it very much still.

A Wonderful List of Breakfast's.

This is a list of the things I like to eat for breakfast.

1. Frozen Blueberries with bananas and real maple syrup- It's cold, it tastes good and it's good for you.
2.   Pancakes with butter and syrup.Maybe some sausage too. other things I like on my pancakes are brown sugar with butter or peanut butter- My family used to have pancakes every few Saturdays.
3.  Scrambled eggs with buttered toast- I like this for lunch sometimes too.
4.   French toast and a fruit- So delicious.
5. Cereal- which means oatmeal with brown sugar and milk. I like hot oatmeal too.
6. Cinnamon rolls- are a very special treat usually eaten at Christmas.
7.  I love homemade cinnamon raisin bread toasted with butter spread on it.
8. Breakfast Burritos- These are good with onions, bell peppers and mushrooms that are all sauteed.
9. waffles- which are also a special treat.
10. Smoothies- they taste so good and cold and fruity. 

As you can see most of these things have a lot of butter in them. Butter can make everything delicious. This is why breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. It has so many wonderful things to eat. You should use this very good list for some breakfast's. I think all these things on the list are delicious. I hope you enjoy some of these things on my list.

One of my guilty pleasures.

I love to read. It's not always a good thing. If you read for too long you'll start to get into the habit of being lazy and sitting around for hours. I would read and sit for so long that when I got up fast I'd start to black out. One time I did black out and I woke up on the floor of my bedroom a few minutes later. Reading isn't really bad. You can get a lot of homework done, you can read your bible and when your extremely bored you can entertain yourself for half an hour or more. You just don't want to read for too long. I finally got out of the habit of reading out in my room for hours. My mom first wouldn't let me read for more than an hour and that helped me slow down. I learned that reading that much of just fantasy was a waste of time. I've been with my brothers a lot more now and I've been ready to help my mom cook for dinner instead of being in my room waiting for dinner to be cooked for me. I still love to read and I probably always will.

How to......

Okay people, this is a list of how to make your bed. If you are still having any problems with making yours, then ask me more about it.

1. First you take your pillow off (and if you have any stuffed animals those can come off too).  

     2. Then you pull all the covers back.

     

     3. Next you take the two bottom sheets and you pull them toward the head area and tuck them in on the sides. You do this on all the rest of the blankets. If you want to fold the top quilt back a little thats looks nice too.

     4. Do you remember that pillow that was thrown on the floor? Yes! thats the one! You want to make sure your pillow is all the way in it's pillow case. Maybe fluff it up a little. I don't know.

     5. Now you may ask where does the pillow go? well you should probably put it where your head goes. That might be extremely important.

     6. If you have stuffed animals then you can assemble them however you like. You can put the hippo in front or the reindeer. whatever looks best on your bed. 

So that's how you make your bed. I hope you enjoy your nice looking bed.

Hello, I'm Marie and I'm going to be writing mostly what my English teacher assigns me and maybe a few other things if  I have anything important to share out of the spoon drawer. I do not know what he will be assigning me so don't get your hopes up I don't know how exciting they will be. Hope you enjoy this.
