Back to the work...yay me...

Well...since we are now back home from our trip to Iowa it seems that I have to do more school work. Yay me, right? Anyways, my mom wants us kids to do math and language over the summer so we can keep our skills up. I want to practice my writing skills, also, so I will be writing in this blog. As I am currently writing right now, I am pondering over what to write about. Hmm...perhaps a topic that interests myself?

HANNAH'S THOUGHT OF THE DAY:
If you know me, I really find History an interesting topic. I always wonder, What would it be like to live in the 1800's? We went to a Living History Museum in Iowa that was based upon the 1700's through the 1900's. It was amazing! These people were hard-workers--they kind of had to have been. A thought that crossed my mind that made me a little envious, was that the kids could run around and well, be kids! They didn't have the temptations of television or electronic devices. They never had to worry about getting stolen or worse, a thought that my awesome parents always worry about. These kids could go to the city by themselves (they knew everyone there), run around, and play with their friends. I wish the United States was safe like that these days. I would gladly give up all electronics to be able to walk to my friends house and play outside all day. I would gladly give up all electronics to be able to run through the prairie grass, and splash in the cool pond. To run deep in the forest with my brother, swinging from trees, and making secret forts. Maybe I am getting too carried away here, but those are thoughts that make me have envy those kids...like Laura Ingalls. She had an amazing life. She worked hard, and played hard. She didn't have to always watch her back, worrying if someone might take her or her sisters. I bet that that thought rarely crossed there minds. Now, because of the sin of man, we cannot have some of those freedoms. One day, however, we will have those freedomes. We will run with our Big Daddy, sit on His lap and listen to His stories, and just cuddle up in our Big Daddy's arms. That thought is a bigger sensation than the ol' days. While we can't go back to the 1800's, we can wait patientley to run into our Big Daddy's arms.
