RIDING BIKES AND GRANDPA

Faith does free writing every week about different things. This was the first week that she wrote. The topic was "What I like about myself." I love that she mentioned her friends and also her Grandpa Kelly!!! I have kept punctuation and spelling the same as what she has.

What I like most about myself is that Im a good bike rider. My bike is blue yellow and black. I'm saving up for a helmet and knee and elbow pads, and also riders gloves. I like riding because its helps me exersize and in the proces it is fun. My little sister also helps me, she is 3. We do races together. She runs on our rock bed and I ride my bike. She wins a few and I win a few and then we take a brake with a glass of water and then we do it all over again. My little brother is 7 and lots of fun. We ride our bikes together. My brothers bike is red and yellow. He has a helmet and knee and elbow pads. It helps me and him. We do races too. Its a race to ride in circles until we get disy who ever goes around in circles the most wins. I go aroud the block 2 times before I need water. The block that I go around is Ponderosa, its usally just 9 houses. My insparation came from my grandpa. Hes riden many races on his bike so I want to be like him. But wait there is more insparation. A fourth grader and 2nd grader started insparation to me. John* and Jake* are great bike riders. .... We all know that rideing a bike is fun but it can be funer with frends. I have 6 frends that ride their bike with me.

* Names have been changed to protect identity (and because Faith told me that I could NOT put their real names in there.)

For her birthday, Faith got a new bike. This is close to what it looks like. I will post a picture with her on it when I get to her birthday!
