At the Supermarket
Today Mum took us to the supermarket. We helped
her tick the food on her shopping list.
We needed to get milk, eggs, fruit, cheese and
bread. I helped Mum find the bread and eggs. Then
we packed some apples and bananas into bags.
I found the milk and cheese in the fridge. The milk and cheese
come from cows that live on a farm.
At the checkout, I helped Mum with packing the food. Mum
always brings her own bags to pack. The supermarket is fun when I
get to help Mum.

Dear June,
I am on a visit to see my gran and her new dog.
The dog is called Duke. He is fluffy and cute.
My gran gave me a prune cake. I do not like
prunes but I did not want to seem rude. Gran
also gave me a lesson on her flute. I cannot play a tune yet, but it
was a lot of fun.
The weather was great, everyday was hot. We went to a new swim
park and there were lots of people there. The best part was a huge
flume. I also went on a river rapid ride. You had to sit on a big,
black tube and not let go. I had a great day but I think it cost my
gran a fortune!

Dear Andrew,
I am having a great time staying with Uncle Matthew and Auntie
Sue for a few days. They were amazed how tall I grew since my last
visit a year ago.
Uncle Matthew took me on a hike. We walked all the way to the
top of the mountain to see the view. He didn’t think I would make it
but I knew I could. When we got back we played cricket and I
threw the ball really hard.
Auntie Sue made stew for dinner and then we had a cake with
candles. I blew out the candles. I think I’m their favourite nephew, I
had a really great holiday. The time just flew by.
See you soon.
