We went out to eat tonight.  We went to a place called Olive Garden.  I don't know why they call it that, there weren't any olives and there sure wasn't a rose garden anywhere.  But, boy was the food good.  I had macaroni and cheese and I ate a lot. 

Mom and Dad are shopping and I am here with Grandma and Grandpa.  I have my own desk at their house.  It also turn into a rocking horse and a high chair.  They are magic.  When I sit in the desk, I am an artist.  I can draw my hand and I color the prettiest straight lines you have ever seen.  And the color is great.  It's what ever color crayon I have at the time.  Sometimes when I sit at the desk I am a poet or an author the trouble is I write so good and so sophisticated that no one can read it yet.  Oh well, someday they will know.

When I sit in the high chair I can sit at the counter to eat my food.  Don't tell mom and dad, but I sometimes get an ice cream sandwich when I'm down here.  (yes, I have my enzymes first)

It's suppose to be a secret, Grandpa is having a birthday tomorrow.  I feel sorry for him, he doesn't get any presents.  I remember my birthday, I got lots and lots and lots of presents.  I asked him how old is going to be and Dad said,  "He's older than dirt."  How old is dirt?  Grandma says, "he's over the hill, to old to count."  I just thought about that, I still don't know how old dirt is what is over the hill and will I like it when I get there?

Oh well, see you later, bye for now.

Let's stry for a discussion tonight.  How old is dirt, and what's over the hill?

Connor wants to know "How old is dirt'?  And "What's over the hill"?  This is what I know for sure.  Dirt is one of the oldest things on the earth so I am sure that your Grandpa Schriever is NOT older than dirt.  Over the hill is not really a fun place to go.  When you have lived as many years as Great Grandpa and Great Grandma Taylor, you are getting old and people say that you are  'Over the Hill'. Your Grandpa Schriever is definitely NOT over the hill either. I am glad that you had such a nice dinner at Olive Garden to celebrate his birthday.  Just give him a big hug and say, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY GRANDPA".  Did he have a birthday cake for you to help blow out all of those candles?  I know that you love your grandma and grandpa and it is so special that you can share such happy times with them.  Give your little brother Mason a big hug and kiss from great grandma Taylor and keep telling your grandpa all those good things for him to write about.
