Grandparents Stories by Elena & Deacon

Elena goes to the 3rd and 4th grade class for reading and writing so she had to write a story and read it to all of the grandparents with the other older kids. The K,1,2 class usually just sings songs so I had no idea she would be reading her story. She read it really well, with tons of expression and the people were cracking up! I really wish I would have had the video camera. ~ Greta (if you can't read the stories, click on them and they will show up bigger on a new page)
