The Balls Family: Father and Son

Dan and Ethan just chilling on the swing in our backyard. Happy as two peas in a pod. Notice the ladder up against the shed and a lawn chair on the roof. That's Ethan's spot for the fire works. He is so special to me.

Grandparents. . . written by a class of 8 year olds

Grandparents don't have to do anything except be there when we come to see them. They are so old they shouldn't play hard or run. It is good if they drive us to the shops and give us money.

Usually grandmothers are fat but not too fat to tie your shoes.

They show us and talk to us about the colors of the flowers and also why we shouldn't step on 'cracks.'

They don't say, 'Hurry up.'

A grandfather is a man & a grandmother is a lady!

Everybody should try to have a grandmother, especially if you don't have television because they are the only grownups who like to spend time with us.
