My Grandpa Wayne

2011-06-18T19:12:00.004-05:00

My grandpa Wayne was at work and he passed out.

They said he had a sejer when he passed out.

They took him to the hospital and did a catscan.

And they found that in his brain he had a tumor.

It was brain cancer.

My dad told me and I was mad and sad and I cried.

Then he had to have surgure to take out the cancer in his brain.

This is what he looked like when he got done.

Now he has to get cemoe treatment.

It makes him sick to his stomach and tired.

My dad says he sleeps 3 hour naps sometime.

I think cancer sucks.

I hate cancer.

But I love my grandpa.

He is showing that he is very strong.

He doesn't want to give up.

I am learning that I should have faith and never give up when things get tough.

Please pray for my grandpa.

Not just for the cancer to go away but to keep finding things to laugh about.

Back to School in Uganda

if people dont have clean water the can get sick and maybe die.

if they get sick or die then they cant' work or learn and go to school.

if they cant' learn and work then they cant' help ther country.

if youre just buying stuff youre going to forget about or brake in a few day you cuold send that money to help build wells to the living water internashunal.

God gave us Jesus on Christmas and my dad says that means we have hope.

If we sent to build wells i think that would give them hope to.

So please give people hope this year that they can not die or get sick and stay in school.

In Uganda Afrika they dont get to finish school and have to carry water a long ways.

Watch the video to learn more.

i flush my tolet with clean water.

lots of people dont have clean water to drink.

many people dying for drinking dirty water.

it makes me very mad and sad.

it should make you very mad and sad to becus we have so much junk and stuff.

but this year i want less stuff.

so my family can give to living water internashunal to help build wells to give fresh water.

so maybe this year you could buy one less gift for each other to.

and then help with building wells.

2009-06-02T19:28:00.004-05:00

My bunny Snowflake had babies!

but they are Not all wite like her cause my brother (he's crazy)

put a diffrent bunny that is black an wite in her cage.

gess what they did?

She was suposd to have another bunnies just like her make other babies.

No More Killing Animals

2009-05-23T21:03:00.002-05:00

this is a sad video and ther shows some animals that are put asleep.

I think that animal ponds shuld not kill animals if they keep them in ther to long.

i think they shuld just make the ponds bigger cuse animals are getting killed for no reson.

peple just move away and leav ther pets behind and they dont get ther animals fix so they dont have babys.

if they have babys they shuld try to find more space for them.

i think you shuld get your aminals fix so ther arnt to many animals in the ponds.

i think you shuld adopt some pets and take good care of them and get them fix.

What Love Is

2009-04-28T20:13:00.003-05:00

This is what I think love looks like:

In people who arent' selfish.

I see it when i go to loafs and fishes and i see people feed the home less.

when you pray i think love is there.

I see it when my twin sisters arent mean to each other and play nice.

When my grandma brings food over thats like love.

and when my mom does all the hard work in the house.

and when i sit with my daddy lap on the couch.

i see love when my brother shares with me and makes me lafgh.

and How god let a mother have an amazing child that loves her.

love is everywere around us if we just not be selfish and to busy to see love.

~ Charley Grace

What It Takes To Be A Good Friend

2009-04-27T20:35:00.004-05:00

This is what i think it takes to be a good friend:

do not fight mean because if you fight you could lose a friend.

don't brag or be bossy because if you brag then the other person might think that they're not good at it and that you are better.

do not lie to your friends because if you lie they might tell somebody and you might get in trouble and you could hurt your feelings really bad.

be nice cause you could get new friends and keep your old ones.

if they mess up on something tell them "good try" instead of bragging.

you should share your stuff because you don't want to be selfish.

treat others the way you want to be treated or you can say good-bye to your friends.

~ Charley Grace

War & Toys

2008-04-29T16:03:00.006-05:00

The troops just came home couple weeks ago to delavan.

We have a natianle gard unit here.

we had a parade for them. Some were crying and hugging them.

They missed there family.

I dont like the war.

becuase it is mean to shoot people.

I think its been fighting a long time so we need to forgive and forgot people.

forgiveing makes the world a better Place.

We could make schools for them and give them toys.

There toys were maybe broken in the bombs and they need new ones to play with.

We are sendig toys to irak for kids to have play with.

It makes me sad they dont have toys to play with maybe.

Be Nice Please

2008-04-10T15:41:00.003-05:00

Treat others the same you would treat yourself.

Don't make fun of other people that don't have homes.

Because it might make them sad or they might think you are bragging.

Say you're sorry and what if you were one would you like to be laughed at?

Try to give them sum stuff they can use instead showing off the stuff you got.

Like money and cell phones to call there famileys or if they are being chased they coudl call the police.

Or they could call if they are sick.

They might be homeless because they dont have enough money to by a house.

If it paid some money they would probly work so you could get them a jobs.

Please be nice to the home less.
