This kinda ties in with my last post... Here's little a story I wrote when I was about 7 or 8. I used my crayons, pencil, fabric and newspaper to illustrate it. A couple years later in 4th grade, I gave myself the nickname of JJ which I wrote on the front of this "booklet" when I learned how to write in cursive. I don't know how my grandmother ended up with this, but she gave it back to me a couple years ago with a bunch of other stories I wrote. This one I just HAD to share!

I loved my Grandma Luxton (father's side) dearly. I wrote this letter 27 years ago and somehow it ended up making it's way back to me after all this time. Oddly enough, it was my other grandma on my mother's side that gave it back to me. I still wonder how this letter made it from my deceased grandmother to my mother's mother. But what I truly appreciate is how they both cared enough to keep this piece of paper all those years, something which might seem like such an insignificant thing to a child.

Mosquitos like you becuse your sweat. Hahaha!

Amy is my younger sister, who comments here frequently. Arianne is my cousin. I was 7 years old when I wrote this.
