Every week Corbin has to write a spelling story using his spelling words and every week it is a struggle. It is getting better as we work on it, but it is usually hard for him to find a topic. The week after Garrett was born, he decided to write about Garrett! His story is so sweet, I wanted to share it!
MY LITTLE BROTHER
For the last nine months, I've been waiting for my little brother. Daddy and Melissa told me about him. They decided to call him Garrett. We got his room ready by getting clothes and furniture.
Cyrus, Michael, and Tessie came from Arkansas to see Garrett. They're Melissa's parents and brother. They stayed in a hotel in Hickory. We went swimming there.
Didi and RaeRae came, too. They're her mom and aunt. They flew from Arkansas and stayed at our house. Didi slept in my room, and RaeRae slept on the couch.
On Tuesday, Daddy and Melissa went to the hospital. Garrett was born March 25, 2009 at 2:04 p.m. I got to see him and hold him while sitting in a chair. His hair is the same as mine. I took care of him by feeding him. Everybody stared at him. Now I'm the big brother!
