Wednesday, February 18th, 2009

This weekend, we are opening the Meyerplex to the general public.  Emma is hosting 8 friends for a movie theme birthday party.  Jenny chose The Spiderwick chronicles.  Emma said most of her friends have seen it already, but she is still excited.

Who am I?

Tuesday, December 16th, 2008

Emma’s 3rd grade speech assignment:

Who am I? I am 61, but for my age, I’m not too old. Elmhurst is my home.  One of my hobbies is to bake.  I am Joyce Fronza, in quote marks, Emma’s Grandma.

I said baking is one of my hobbies, and it is.  I love cooking as much as seeing one of my grandchildren.   My grandchildren, are one of the best things in my life, so something as great as them is usually impossible!  I bake for parties, holidays, and just because.  I don’t want to brag, but I am better at cooking than most people. So if you decide to come over, you will probably find me in the kitchen, baking brownies, meatballs, cupcakes, or something even better.

But then again, you might find I’m not even home, because I’m an enormous shopper.  Shopping is another one of my hobbies.  I like shopping because it gives me a chance to get myself new clothes, buy clothes for my grandchildren, and to just be moving around.  If you ask me, I think my life is pretty special.  I’ll have to end my speech, because I only have one life, and I don’t want to stay here wasting it.

The End.

Mmmm... Pie.

Mmmm... Pie.

“True Story”

Friday, November 14th, 2008

Ever wonder what your parents do at night?
Well one night, I found out.
My parents were quarreling,
This is what they said:

Mom: “This is an old photo,
of my ex-ex-ex boyfriend.
It’s a black and white photo,
And it is so beautiful!

Dad: “My ex-ex-ex-ex girlfriend,
loves to eat junk food.
And I do too!

I know that is what they said,
At least I think so.
