Hi Grandpa. ?? I hope you're doing great. Actually, I know you're doing great. You're in such an amazing place, I can't help but sometimes wish I were there with you. I miss you more than you may know. Or rather, maybe you do know. Because I do realize you're watching down on my family and I as we push through each day. The thought of that is comforting. It's almost as if I have my own, personal, guardian angel. School is going well, I guess. Though I'll be happy the day it's over, eighth grade at least. I'm ready for high school. Where I can wear my own clothes, make new friends and hopefully start over. I'm pretty stoked! But hey, that also means I'm getting older. ?? I'll be fourteen in only a week or two! Can you believe it? Even though I feel as if I should be older (thank the Lord that I'm not), It's very exciting. Though it can be upsetting at times. I really do wish that I could just go back to kindergarten. When everything was bright and sunny, you didn't have to worry about somebody turning against you or spreading rumors around town. When your only worry was how many crayons you had, or when nap time was. I definitely miss it, and I wouldn't hesitate to take advantage of the chance if I could go back to that time. But anyways, back on topic.. You know, a lot of people have been asking me what I want for my birthday. And as much as I know that people are struggling with money, it's kind of tough for me to just stick things out there. You know? Things aren't cheap anymore. But lately, I've reeaallyy been wanting a camera. I've been wanting it for a while now, actually. I think it would be so great, I would enjoy it a lot. Well.. Im being rushed, ahaha! So Im headed up to bed. Keeping my head up for you, papa. I love you.
