My cousin JoJo is here in Jamaica with us.

We are all having fun with her.

On Sunday, we drove to May Pen to see JoJo’s mom, Aunty Rema.

Then Uncle Earl drove with us to Lover’s Leap high up in the hills of St. Elizabeth.

This is called the most romantic place in Jamaica.

The story is that two slaves who were in love, Mizzy and Tunkey, jumped off the cliff to their death so that they could never be separated.

Then we drove down to the beach to visit Jakes at Treasure Beach.

I had fruit punch and sat and watched Sister Vicky playing with her new friend Malik in the sand.

Mommy had soup and vegetable stew for dinner.

Daddy and the rest of us went over to Jack Sprat to get steamed and fried fish for dinner.

I had jerked chicken and fries.

We all had a wonderful time in Treasure Beach.

Daddy and Uncle Earl drove us safely back to Kingston.

Today is Friday, February 14, 2020.

Today is Valentine’s Day and everybody is wearing red. 

I got red balloons from Aunty Jackie.

They made me feel very special.

Many people share chocolates on Valentine’s Day.

This morning Mommy and I went to Grandma.

Later at the office, Uncle Chinna came and had lunch with us.

He gave me a ginger drink that he made and I enjoyed it.

Uncle Chinna’s big son, Jason will have his twentieth bIrthday tomorrow.

He is studying at the University.

His other sons Jusain and Jaydon are in high school.

My cousin JoJo is coming later today from America.

She wants to go to the beach and other fun places.

Earlier today, Dad and I went to pick up Sister Vicky at school.

We stopped at Lee’s to buy doughnut and coconut water.

We drove back to the office to play cricket with Vicky and my friend Justin.

I am looking forward to the weekend.

After working for five days, the weekend is time to rest.

Some people go to church, either on Saturday and Sunday.

Sometimes I stay at home and play wii sports game with Vicky.

I also like to go shopping at the supermarket and buy groceries.

I like to watch the movie Madagascar on my Kindle Fire tablet.

I like to watch cricket games with the West Indies, India and England.

Sports helps me to focus and stay fit.

We are now in the month of December.

People are starting to get ready for the Christmas season.

We are seeing lots of ads on TV.

There are also lots of holiday jingles on the radio.

Vicky and I saw Santa Claus in the supermarket.

People are driving around with reindeer antlers on their cars.

The stores are now putting up pepper lights and Christmas trees.

The holidays are fun, but we must not forget the true meaning of Christmas

It is about loving, caring and sharing with each other.

We should show love not only at this time but all throughout the year..

Christmas is also a time for family.

This year we will spend time together and give thanks to God for another year.

My Grandma will go to church to thank God for Grandpa who left us this year.

My sister and I will give thanks for our parents, teachers and friends.

Today I drove with Pablo to drop off Capo and Leroy at Uncle Trevor’s apartment.

Then Pablo took me to Genesis Academy for class.

I had fun at drumming with my friends.

I saw Anya dancing to the music.

Mrs Knight was writing on the black board.

I am back at the office now.

After I finish my stories, I will go outside to play cricket with Daddy and Justin.

Daddy will bowl and I will bat.

I will try not to hit the ball on the roof.

Last night, I felt the cool breeze blowing.

This tells me that Christmas is just around the corner.

I hear jingles on the radio and see see ads on TV.

I see decorations In the stores.

Christmas is coming!

At Christmas time we remember people who are old, sick and poor, and we must be kind to them.

We must spend time together as family and give thanks for all our blessings.

This year we will say a special prayer for Grandpa.

This is our first Christmas holiday without him.

Every day after drumming I head to the office to play my favorite game.

I like playing cricket. 

I also like watching cricket stars like Gayle, Kholi and Moen Ali.

I was hitting fours and sixes all over the place.

I hit some balls on the roof.

Capo climbed up to get the balls off the roof and threw them down.

I like to hear everybody cheer me on.

Grandpa Terance

He was a policeman who was strong and fair and loved his family.

We are going to miss him.

Today I had banana, yam, plantain and mackerel for breakfast.

Daddy and I enjoyed Mommy’s cooking. 

Sister Vicky slept long and got up to drink her cereal and milk.

Later we will go to the supermarket to buy food stuff for our home and the office.

I had fish and rice for lunch.

Daddy came home and steamed fish with bammy.

Daddy has steam fish which tasted great.

Daddy is eating much better.

Of late, he is making me eat more vegetables in my food.

We are drinking more coconut water instead of sweet drinks.

Eating healthy is very important and helps me to control my mood swings.

I have to fight my seizuries so I don’t become grumpy.

In the evening we will go to look for Grandma and Grandpa.

He is not feeling well and needs a nurse to look after him.

My school, Genesis Academy, closes today for the mid-term break.

It will reopen next week Tuesday.

Tomorrow will be a public holiday in Jamaica.

Labour Day is a time to show that we care by helping others.

On Labour Day, there are many projects to help the less fortunate people.

People get together to paint schools and hospitals.

Others help the older folks by feeding and caring for them.

Tomorrow I will stay home and help clean my home.
