Happy Halloween

                   Trick or treat. Don't you just love getting candy? I know I do, and soon one of my favorite holidays is coming up. It is finally October and you know what that means. Halloween is just three days away, can you believe it? I love to go door to door and get candy. Hershey, skittles, and starburst is what I hope to get. We'll find out soon. Another thing I like about Halloween is dressing up. This year I am going dress up as a witch. What about you? Oh, and remember, get as much candy as you can, and always remember to say, Boo! Happy Halloween!

Wonders of Sleep

                     

                Sleep is very important. Some of us whine right before we go to sleep because we aren't tired. Your body says that but your mind says "no". Then when we wake up we don't want to. We just want to stay in bed, which is the opposite of what you felt last night. This is perfectly normal, everyone experiences it.

Here is a little scenario most of us have gone through. Enjoy!

                Walking up the stairs to my bedroom I am not tired, but that isn't in my dad's vocabulary. Reluctantly, I put on my pajamas and plop onto my warm, comfy bed. I reach out my hand to turn my alarm on. Then I put my cozy blanket over me. Ten minutes later after continuous tossing and turning to get in the right position I am off into a deep sleep. While sleeping I go into a world where anything is possible, the world of dreams.

                 A few hours later slowly, my eyes are drifting upwards to check the time. It is 2:45 A.M. "Yes!" I whisper,"I have plenty of time left. DRRRIINNG! DRRRIINNG! My alarm rings. I wake up immediately to turn it off. What! Wasn't it 2:45 just a minute ago? How did it get to 6:30 already? Disappointed, I tumble off my bed, raise the blinds, then head into the bathroom. Then I realize it is Monday. The weekend seems so far away like a fading dream I can never replace.

Appropriate Terms

                    There are a few terms to address a little person. Some are acceptable but there is one where little people can't stand. Do you know which is the appropriate term? It is okay if you haven't heard it before. Just guess before you read the next paragraph. Is it dwarf or midget?
                    If you guessed dwarf you are a hundred percent right! I know you have all heard the term dwarf, but I'm guessing some of you haven't even heard the word midget. I dwarf is someone who has short stature from birth who grows up to be about four feet tall. A midget is a person who is slightly smaller and in some cases belongs in a circus. Most of the time when someone is called a midget they are made fun of. I hope you con predict that the lesson here is you always have to think before you talk.

                     You may have heard the term "nobody's perfect" which is true. Everyone is different in their own special way. It is just that you might not take the chance to notice it. On the outside you might seem like a regular person, but is that true for you on the inside. Of course, all of you now know that I am a little person. Now let's find out what is special about you.

                     There are many adjectives to describe just one person. You could be tall, short, fat, skinny, smart, fast, slow, funny, serious, and talkative. Now I know those are a lot of words, but let's see if one fits you just right. You can look at yourself in the mirror and describe yourself that way, or you can even ask your friends and family and see what they think of you on the inside. That way, you will get many answers. Try doing this at home today and send me comments of what you heard and saw. Always remember this, nobody can be perfect but you can always be your best! Thank you for reading!
