What I did today -- by Abi (with mama's help)

Today in the morning I woke up, got dressed, and did everything I needed to. I didn't go to school because I was sick yesterday and we wanted to make sure that I wan't sick any more.

I went downstairs and worked on a math problem with mama. There is a dot in one corner and there is a dot in the other corner and you need to find out how many ways you can get from one corner to the other one. The answer was 10.

I also made a paper grid for Battleship for me and Galya. You take two pieces of paper, a crayon, and a ruler. On each paper, I needed to draw two big squares. Inside the squares, I needed to draw ten lines down and ten lines across. I had to put Russian letters on the side and on the top I needed to put numbers from 1 to 10. I hid these grids under the papers on my table, so Galya would be surprised.

Then Galya came and asked me "Did you eat anything?", and I said "No". Then I asked, "Did you bring any omelette today?", and Galya said, "Yes!"

So we ate some omelette and then we played Set. I also made a little concert, then we went outside and I found lots of things, like sparkles. We went to the park and there I saw my friend Sophia, and we played tag with her friend Henry. I wasn't running or catching. I was the base and I was on Sophia's team, and I was trying to make it so Henry couldn't get to the base.

I fell down on the right side of the sandbox and hurt my knee, but I didn't cry. Henry fell down too. Then Henry's father asked Sophia, "Did you fall down?" and she said no.

Then it was time to go. On the way out of the park, we saw mama riding her bike home. She was thinking, "Are they home yet or not?" And then I saw Sophia walking home and I ran to her, and we went in my driveway and picked some blueberries for her. I asked her, "Do you want one of my sparkles?" and she picked a purple one. Then we picked some more blueberries. She asked, "Can I pick one of those flowers?", and I said yes. Then I asked, "Do you want to have another sparkle? Can you please pick a pink one, because the pink ones are most of all, and I want to keep the ones that are not most of all." And she did. And that's not the end. Galya already left, and then Sophia left. She said, "I'm going to see you tomorrow at the playground, don't worry".

The end.
