My Brother

Hi my name is Jonny, I'm 6 years old and I'm Tara's Little brother.

I like Thomas the Train and Friends, ride my bike, help my sister, go to school, go to grandmas house you know all kinds of stuff.

My favorite people are my Mom, Dad, Tara, Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Nick, Aunt Keri, Uncle Matt, Uncle Chad.

Sometimes I like Nick Jr. and Sprout, I like to learn new things. I'm learning to read and add and subtract, I can count by 5's and 10's and 2's, I know about money and which faces are on the coins and dollars.

Sometimes my sister makes me mad and sometimes I make her mad.

We get kind of crazy sometimes, but we like to jump on the bed and play together. Tara likes to chase me and we play catch together. Tara likes to steal my food from me and that gets me mad, but I share with her and then we are both happy.

I have 2 cats Bootsy and Smokey and I have 20 fish it is hard to count them cause they keep moving on me. So mom said I had to guess.

June 11th 2008 Graduation from Kindergarten

The children had their graduation today and it was absolutely wonderful!

Jonny had a part to do in front of everybody. He did wonderful and made the crowd giggle (Jonny make someone giggle no way!?!) Yeah right who am I trying to "kid". What happened was they were al singing a song and it went something like this: I have a grad etude attitude Yea Yea Yea, I have a grad etude attitude Yea Yea Yea What are you grateful for ? What are you grateful for? Jonny says "I'm grateful for Chocolate chip cookies". I have a grad etude attitude Yea Yea Yea, I have a grad etude attitude Yea Yea Yea!

We came home after the ceremony and we celebrated. I Made a cake for them and decorated it with Jonny's Help. Tara wanted to dig right in and eat it before it was done so I had to "fix" the cake. We had candles and we sang the congrats song. One of the days I will not ever forget!

We had a blast and it was defiantly once in a life time experience! I sat with one of my friends and we were both in tears! Our "babies" are growing up FAST. Tara and Jonny will be both going into the 1st Grade and growing and getting bigger and bigger. Time flies when you are having fun, I enjoy being able to watch both my kids grow up some days just go to fast! I will be posting some graduation pictures feel free to stop on by the Photo page to see them! I'm sure that they (Tara and Jonny) have grown since you last checked the pictures.

I'm learning to use the computer and getting really good at it. I like to play on sprout and noggin the most because they have the games that I like to play.

October 17 2008 update

I'm in first grade this year and I really enjoy it allot. I am doing very well and am in the top of my class for reading. I like my teacher and am making new friends. I get to play in Gym with Tara when she comes and we all like to help her out and play with her. I like to help Tara and my mom with many things. I'm growing pretty good and Mom says I'm too smart for my own good. I'm starting to collect Hot Wheels toys, but I'm still collecting Thomas the train toys also.

2009 already and Mom is just updating my page now??? That is ok though, she is always busy. I'm 7 years old now and I like to play with legos, still Thomas the Train and Friends, my sister, going fishing with dad and the family. I also have 3 cats now smokey had babies so Mom and Dad let me keep 2 kittens. Bandit is my cat and she hugs me and wakes me every morning. Fluffy is mom's cat. We went on a vacation to Arkansas and I had so much fun I didn't want to come home. I made a couple of new friends and I enjoyed them so much! They asked Mom and Dad if we wanted to join them at their church so we did and I wanted to go back because it was so much fun but we had to come back to WI. On our trip we went to the Little Rock capital, Old Mill, scenic drive through Hot Springs, Crater of Diamonds, Woolly Hollow State Park, Military Museum, the Goodrich's property and seen Lamb (that thinks he is a dog and I got to feed him his bottle), goats, chickens, dogs, and mules. See some pictures to the right. While at Woolly Park my sister and I were playing on the play ground and some kids came to me and said "what is wrong with her" (because I was helping my sister play) and I said "Nothing, Nothing is wrong with her it just takes her a little longer time to do things that is all". My mom was so PROUD of me and so happy that I explained things lightly to the other kids. They didn't ask anymore and they didn't stare anymore. I'm so glad that I got to go with my family on this trip!

I hope that you enjoyed visiting me. Come back soon.
