    Today is our last day! Today I went outside and did some chalk with 3-year-old twins! It was very fun. I made the earth and under it, it said "Change the world." I hope that everybody had a great day today.

    Today I went on a lovely walk with my dad. We just got out before the rain started up again or should I say down!

    Today was a very rainy day. I went for a little stroll around the block. I was stressed and frustrated with school and the walk really helped me. I think walking is very good for the body and the mind. I hope that you have a good rest of your day!

    I went trick or treating with my brother for the last time. COVID-19 trick or treating is way better than regular trick or treating because you get way more candy. It was a cold night and the moon was full, it was very pretty.

    We have a bird feeder and the birds are always dropping the seed. Today, I watched a mouse and a squirrel eat the seeds. Every so often the mouse would get scared and it would jump around and it was really funny. The mouse went away after a while, but the squirrel stayed and it was fun to watch its little hands, grab at things. Also, there were birds that would hop around and eat the seeds.

    Today I passed out paper bags to most of the neighborhood kids and explained to them that I was collecting candy wrapper to be recycled. I hope that the turn out is good! I will let you know how it goes!
