All About Me

16 05 2010

My name is  Anna.  I have four people in my family.  My mother, father, brother, and me.  We have a lot of animals too.  We have: 2 dogs, 2 cats, 10 hamsters, 1 snail, 1000 ants, 1000 lizards, 1000 mosquitos, 1000 flys, and 1000 spiders.

My family goes to church too.  we go on Sunday morning and Sunday night.  I like to draw and paint.  I love horses and dolphins.  I want to be an artist when I grow up.  My father is a very good artist.  These things are a few things about me.

Short Notes from Anna

16 05 2010

Anna was a reader.  Those who knew Anna well knew that about her.  Those who knew her slightly, knew her at least as a girl who was always carrying several books with her.  “Just in case,” she would say.

Anna was also a writer.  I knew this when she was still alive, but, for a variety of reasons, I did not read her works then.  It is only now after her death that I am finding all these things she wrote.

The other day, Timberley showed me one of Anna’s school books in which she was to write one page stories or journal entries based on a given theme.  I would like to share some of those with you.  They are short.  Some are funny.  Some are poignant.  Others are just, well, school assignments.  When I am done posting these, there are some other things she has written that I will post.
