Shadow Lands

 Shadow Lands is a wonderful movie and book. The true love life of C.S. Lewis is so amazing. He walks His life with the woman that he loves with all his heart. It is a funny, Sarcastic, Sad, and Loving movie. This woman changed his whole life, in a lot of ways.She said things he wouldn't be able to say. If you watch the movie you will love it.


I am in the middle of the book that he wrote, and I like it so far.

He was Sixty years old when married he her.

                                               If you look at their faces you can tell that they loved                                                   each other. They look at each other in respect.

Have fun watching this. It is amazing.

We Saw Dolphin Tale

 We saw the movie and it was a great movie. The movie mainly is about not giving up.

 The last part of the movie is people with their own disabilities meeting Winter the Dolphin.

I really hope you goes will see the movie. It was amazing.

Dolphin Tale

 We had plan to see this movie today but they changed. I so can't wait to see the movie.

I myself have two prosthetic feet, and I know how it feels to be able to move freely.

This dolphin gets a prosthetic tale, because it lost his.
After getting the prosthetic tale he could move freely and I bet it felt wonderful to the dolphin.










Enjoy watching this video.

Thanks

Me and My Wonderful Loving Dad

Last week my wonderful dad took me out to Cristina's. Me and him had a great time. That will be a memory that I will never forgot.

I have a great gift from God and many others. One of them is my Inspiring,Caring, and Loving father.

The first time I met My mom and Dad, my words were, where have you been, I have been waiting for you for 50 years!

I use to dream big about having a loving family. Seeing other kids being adopted made me want to dream more for a loving family. Sarah was my friend in the orphanage, my true friend. When she was adopted, I felt so Scared, so Sad, and Angry, Losing my only true friend.

I was left in a dying crib for four years, everyone thinking I was not going to live. After four years, I was taken out and was put in an orphanage for three more years. Mom and Dad came and I was so happy.

Today we are all a family. It so amazing how God worked to put Sarah and I together as sisters. Not only me best friend, but has been my sister for 5 years.

I also have my sister Anna, that is funny, Sarcastic, loving, and Caring. She makes me laugh when I don't feel good or when I am sad. I love her very much.

And Also Alli, my Silly, wonderful, Loving, and Caring Sister. She cares for me when I am hurt or when I am sad.  She loves to spend time with me. And I love her Dearly.

 And now I come to my loving parents. My mom is very gentle with me. She is every thing all in one. She gets worried when Fall. She will set down with me and hold me and when I need her to. She is everything to me. Not long ago she told me I was turning into a beautiful young lady, inside and out.And I love her so very much..

And my Dad. It is hard to describe him. He is Daring, Silly, Sarcastic,Loving, and many. He loves to give me and my sisters hugs. He loves to love.
Today I stood with my dad and gave him a hug. While giving him that hug, it made me think about 15 or 20 year later I wont have my dad standing their able to give me a hug. I soaked that moment in loving my dad very much, hoping the moment would never be over.
If you think about your Dad or your Mom, the are a gift from God, they are very special.
After Losing my dearest Grandfather, it made me want love my Dad and my mom even more.
Every Day, Week, and Month we get closer to our death. Tell your loved ones that you love them while you have the chance to say.

So I got to soak another moment with my dad last Thursday.
Me and him leaving to go.
We turned up the radio really loud and rocked every place we went.
We could also call in and ask for a song we wanted to listen to .
So dad told me to call and ask for one that is not very popular. The radio station couldn't find it, so we called in and asked for another hard one.

He took me out to Cristina's and we had a wonderful time.


We had some great food.
Mom was very jealous!!

It was very Good. We prayed and had a great dinner.

It was very special to me and meant a lot.










He also took me to Guitar Center, and I got  a guitar tuner.

It was a wonderful Time.

Me and Dad came home and I thanked him and gave him a long hug.

Love you very Much Dad!!!
And thank you.








Thanks for Reading.

More School Things

Today was another school day. On my math I do Saxon Math, and I have a blast....Except when I got Investigation. I am on Investigation 6 which doing Attributes of Geometric Solids.

Today I learned about the names of the Geometric solids.
Here are the ones I learned:
Triangular Prism, Rectangular Prism, Cube, Pyramid, Cylinder, Cone, and Sphere.

Also that the Solids can have Faces, edges, and Vertices.
Faces:A flat surface of a solid.
Edges:A line where two faces meet.
Vertex:A point where three or more edges meet.

I drew that and Copied it and put it up so I can memorize it.
If you really think about it math is really fun.
Believe it or not but math is my favorite subject in school.
Ha very shocking.!!!!
Drawing that was very fun.

But understanding what I was doing on my Investigation was hard this time.

Mom was very suprised that I couldn't understand the things it had me do.

I drew that one also: which was fun.

Thanks for reading my blog.

Some Camp Pictures

The owner of the camp (Scott Simmons) let me drive the golf cart. I had so much fun.
Thanks for letting me drive Scott.
Here is a picture of him and I.

I had a great time at camp.

Some on at camp got a picture of Robert (one of the helpers) sitting on me.
For a while I didn't mind, but then he said he had a fart coming and I made that face.
I found out that some had the camera and took a picture, when we saw the Slide Show.
Anyway here it is.

I had a great time.

Happy Independents day

The

Declaration

Of

Independence

IN CONGERESS, July 4, 176.

The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united State of America,

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary of one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes witch impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these end ,it is the Right of the people  to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariable the same Object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards of their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such it now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this let Facts be submitted to a candid world. He has refused his Assent to Laws the most wholesome and necessary for public good. He has forbidden his Governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing importance unless suspended in their operation till has Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has refused the pass other laws of the accommodation of large districts of people unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only. He has called together legislative bodies at place unusual, uncomfortable, and distant for the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures. He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasion on the rights of the people. He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large of their exercise; the State remaining in the meantime exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within he has endeavored to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands. He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws of establishing Judiciary powers. He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their office, and the amount and payment of their salaries, he has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance. He has kept among us in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures. He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power. He has combined with others to subject us to and jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation: For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us: For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders witch they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States: For cutting off our Trade with parts of the world: For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent: For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury: For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments; For suspending our own Legislatures and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whosoever. He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us. He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people. He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation. He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands. He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions. In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in most humble terms, our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people. Nor  have We been wanting in attention to our Brittish brethren. We have warned them for time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our Separation, and hold them as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.

WE, THEREFORE, the Representatives of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA, in General Congress, Assemble, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intention of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be, FREE AND INDEPENDENT STATE; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to be British Crown, and that all political connection be between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which INDEPENDENT States may of right do AND for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other  our Lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.

Happy Forth of July to all.
