This is a poem that I wrote about winter.
Winter Wonderland
By Parker
It's winter, and it's freezing out there,
But's let's go outside, it's cold, but we don't care!
Let's build a snow fort, maybe some snowmen,
Then we'll have a snowball fight, throw snowballs again and again!
After that, rush inside and wrap that last gift,
Because Christmas will be here before you know it!
Now it's Christmas time, and snow's on the ground,
Around the blazing fire we'll all gather around.
Drinking hot chocolate, we'll read a Christmas story,
of Jesus's birth, Oh glory of glories!
Of angels proclaiming his birth up above,
Of Him sleeping soundly like a dove.
Then in the dark, under cover of night,
Santa will come, his footsteps so light.
He'll leave presents under the tree,
And, Oh! How happy we'll be!
Then we'll look out the window and notice the snow, created by God's hand,
And we'll have to appreciate this winter wonderland.

Hi, Parker!
I just got done telling Olivia how impressed I was with her ability to rhyme, and now I must tell you the exact same thing.
I was never very good at writing rhymed poetry, even though I loved writing free verse. Keep it up. You're showing yourself to be a fine writer. In a way, I prefer writing to speaking--even sometimes in conversation--because I can think about what I want to say and get the words right. Sometimes I don't get the words right when I'm talking.
Hope you have fun keeping up with the details of your life. You'll be happy later if you do. Trust me. It's fun to look back on things you wrote and remember what life was like. You think you'll never forget the details of what your room looked like, or your favorite book, or what your sister said last weekend that made you laugh.
But, in time, it can fade.
Keeping a journal or a blog or anything like this preserves it for later reflection.
Just be sure to paste it into a Word document and print it out every once in a while. You don't want to completely entrust all of your thoughts and writing to Blogger or the World Wide Web.
They might lose it.
And it's good stuff.
See you around!
