The older Kate

In K's own words:

I am Kate, daughter of Kari. I couldn't write before on this blog because I was far too young, but my sister, Jackie, has before. I am nine years old and in third grade. I like to play soccer. I like to go to school activities. I love to read books (especially comics). I like to make up stories. And I get really creative, sometimes. My sister wants to be in a lot of plays, and so do I.

When I grow up I want to own a restaurant to make people happy, but I'm afraid it won't come true because it takes a lot of work. So so much work.

My teacher is named Miss Dillon, and guess what? She was also my soccer coach! And the teacher who is next-door is Mr. Raker who is so funny! My best friend is named Emily. And my other friend is named Ben. His dad works with my grandma.

My favorite color is ice blue. My favorite season is summer because I get to play with my friends, go to the beach, and eat ice cream!!!! And most of all, having fun!

It's so much fun writing this blog with my mom. That's all about me so far... except, if you have french fries, save one for me. (With no ketchup. I don't like ketchup)

Signed,
Your Angel Cake, Kate

FROM MOM: Dear Angel Cake, I loved your blog post!! You will look back at this one day and laugh and smile at this snapshot of your life when you were 9 years old. Never, never change. You are so funny, and silly, and kind, and funny, and sweet, and funny (did I say that yet?). We love every bit of you.
