When I was six the deer cept eating our planets until...One day dad came home with a fence. A fence for the deer. Two years past so far no bunnys and deer. Now I am eight years old. Mom and I were planting my plant when suddinly...The deer strucked again! It was horible. My mother was sad. :( I was worried that the deer would eat my sunflower.
*Every day, the four older kids have to write Five Fun French Facts! on a subject I give them in a notebook in preparation for our trip to France in August. This is one of Hope's entries.
**All portions of this post are transcribed exactly as written.
***The kids will definitely be collaborators on the sequel to Comfortably Yum.
