The day I had surgery

On last week I had surgery. I was scared before the surgery but I got over it when I got to the hospital. I had surgery on my navel....but its called something else. My mom says its a hernia surgery but I just call it a belly button surgery. My navel was out so they put it in.

Picture

The surgery was okay I didn't feel anything until I woke up then I was sore. My belly button was all covered up and I could not walk for a few days. I am all better now.....I think. My mom said she had the same surgery and my sister will probably have it to.

What kinds of surgeries have you had?

Race at such a young age

I asked my mom about race the other day because I heard the word and did not understand what it meant. My mom asked me to explain the color of my skin and the color of others in my own words and whatever I say believe in it.

My response was, I am brown and I have bones inside my skin. I go to school with people who are peach or beige and brown like me. Color of skin does not matter because friends are just friends. CJ is my friend and he is beige. We are brown......I don't understand why my mom says black. 

We all come in different shapes, sizes, and color but that should not define who we are. Everyone bleeds blood oh and has bones too.

What I have learned so far this summer

This summer my mom has my sister and I in "summer school" I don't like it. She has a board on the wall that outlines what we do each day. This week we are writing and reading plus I have a Dr. appointment on Friday

I am practicing my handwriting because mom says I need too. I think I write better than her (see above picture) My mom has me practicing in this book

I am almost finished this book and then we will concentrate on more math and reading. I guess I need to learn so I don't lose anything over the summer. What have you learned this summer so far?

All pictures were taken by me with my moms old snap and shoot camera and I like taking pictures its fun.
