Hi everyone!
Excitement is mounting around the house as preparations are being undertaken for my birthday this weekend. I’ve decided on the ‘logo’ J7 (Jarrod is Seven) for the operations leading up to my big day. Commander in Chief Mom is feverishly working on the details and arrangements for my party. Lots of party type stuff has been bought and despite my best efforts to start ‘decorating’ Mom has forbade me from going near any of that stuff. Also I’ve noticed that I’m being kept out of the basement storeroom. Mom and Dad didn’t think I noticed, but I did. I won’t spoil it for them, but I know all my presents are in there.
The theme I’ve opted for this year is sharks. No not the sports team, just sharks in general. Since my visit to the Kwa-Zulu Natal Sharks Board I’m fascinated with these creatures, spending hours learning about them and understanding them. My favourite shark is Hammy the Hammer Head, the plush toy from the Sharks Board, but the Megalodon, which is now extinct, comes a close second.
School has been going well, albeit I battle from time to time. Teacher Madi is very patient with me, and I often come home with sterling work to show off to Mom and Dad.
The weather has turned freezing cold, but I guess that’s not uncalled for given we are in the middle of winter now. We even had a little rain last week.
Granny, who has been staying with us on and off for the past four weeks owing to excruciating back pain is scheduled for surgery on Thursday morning. Please keep her in your thoughts.
Love,
Still six year old Jay-Bee!
