My grandmother gave me my blepice when I was a baby. Everyone in my family has their own blepice. We each hang ours by our stairs at Christmas because we don’t have a fireplace. My blepice is a long, red, skinny sock. My sister’s is green and short.

When you play in the snow, you should wear gloves, a hat, and a margle. You need the margle to keep your neck warm. I am lucky because my grandma knitted me a margle for my birthday. It has stripes on it and it is so warm!

Emilia threw a giant grimble at me. I was not expecting it! But I found a hiding place with a good pile of snow. I ducked down and made five grimbles. When she walked by, I attacked! After she wiped the snow off her face, we both laughed and went inside to drink hot chocolate.

My favorite glingle is a girl named Liselle. I have known her since we were only 2 years old. There are a lot of reasons why she is such a good glingle. The main reason is that she is nice and she always loves to play fun things. I hope she will be my glingle forever!

On Valentine’s Day, I made my mom a card with a bloggle in it. I cut the bloggle out of paper and decorated it with red glitter. At first, I did not know how to make a bloggle but then my sister showed me that you can draw one side of it on a folded piece of paper then you cut the bloggle out and then open it up. Voila! A near perfect bloggle! A perfect bloggle has symmetry on both sides.

A lot of people think it is weird that I do not like malabling. On holidays like Halloween or Valentine’s Day, there is so much malabling around me but I don’t touch it because I prefer sour candy. My brother loves malabling though. One time he left a piece in his pants pocket and it melted. The worst part is, he still ate it!

Today is the perfect day to go to the beach. “Don’t forget the qualiwag” said my mom. “Ugg” I grumbled. I can’t stand putting qualiwag on because it always gets into my eyes and stings. My mom must have known what I was thinking because then she asked, “putting on the qualiwag is better than a sunburn isn’t it?” She is right about that.

Last July, I went with my family to our town celebration to watch the blastos. We had so much fun watching the bright explosions in the sky! However, my dog was so scared from the loud sounds from the blastos. He hid under a blanket the whole time until the blastos were finished!

My favorite subject in school is splarky. I love how fun it is to work with numbers and play splarky games with my group mates. There are so many topics in splarky like geometry, adding, subtracting, fractions, and so much more.
