Hello God,
I'm sorry I couldn't write to you for two days, I was busy. Grandpa stayed in bed all day, so grandma was stuck giving him this nasty smelly medicine, and I was stuck doing chores on our small farm. We only have a few chickens and one goat. Grandma named her Caramel, because she's the color of milk and honey. She's really beautiful! Tomorrow will be Friday, and Friday, my best friend, Macy, promised to give me a very late birthday present!! I just hope she keeps her promise! She's not good at that! But that's okay, I don't need a silly birthday present! I'm glad she's my best friend at least. I forgot to feed the goat today, I guess I better go. Grandma will give me a long talk again. Write to you tomorrow!
Lots of hugs,
Ashley
