My family went to New Jersey. We went for a walk through the park. We saw the lake. I did something dangerous.

I said, “I see a fish!” My dad said “It’s a dead fish.”

We walked over the bridge and down another path that was a dead end. We played under a big tree with bright pink flowers. There were so many pink flower petals on the ground, Uncle Marco told us it was pink snow. But it wasn’t. We tried to catch the petals as they fell. Uncle Marco shook the branch and a lot fell – including into his hair.

Daddy put me on his shoulders for some of the trip.

Fo and I took a picture with mommy and Avo for mother’s day. Avo made a yummy chicken, rice and potato lunch. For dessert we had ice pops. I wanted to get purple. The ice pop I thought was purple was really red.

I gave mommy four presents for mothers day – a card, a drawing of mommy, a flower and another picture I colored. (I will try to scan them and post them here). The picture of the pretty owl said “Mom, this is your special day now let’s say Hip Hip Hooray. Happy Happy Mommy Day!”

I can’t remember the kind of flower I gave to mom. We’ll have to wait until it grows and blooms to find out what it is. (or just ask my teacher).

Happy Mother’s Day to all moms out there. And to my mom and Avo – I love you. I’m sure you love your mom too.
