Chapter 13: This year

This year, I am going to Star Elementary. Every morning, I take the bus to school and Cole and my mom walk me to the bus stop. I don't take the bus home after school, though. I did on the first day but the trip was so long that I feel asleep on the bus.

On Mondays, I go to a special program at a different school. The program is called Challenge and we do really interesting projects there all day. I am liking school this year. My favorite friends to play with are Keaton, Kylan, Luke, Josh, Mitch, Max and Riggin, and of course, my cousin, Sam. A new boy just moved in across the street. I went over to his house to introduce him but we haven't played together yet.

I am taking swimming lessons twice a week. It is fun and I can tell that I am improving as a swimmer. I am also taking a music class. We each have our own set of bells and we learn rhythm and beats. I really like it. I played tackle football for the first time the other night. It was a lot of fun. I want to start playing it a lot. I go to a soccer camp every Saturday. I am one of the oldest people at the camp. It is great and I know I am getting to be a better player.

I am really excited about my new little sister who will be born soon. I am trying to convince my mom to let her sleep with me in my room. She says that probably won't happen.

I can't wait to see all the cousins again. It seems like it is too far away!
