Ladybug Jones. That's me!
I am seven years old. I live with my mommy, daddy, and my brothers and sisters in Tampa Bay, Florida, where it's usually warm all year 'round!
I am in the second grade at Tampa Bay Elementary School, and my teacher is Miss Patrick. I have tons of friends there at school; my best friend is none other than Gennifer Grace Holmsby, who's the same age as me.
I was named Ladybug 'cause mommy says I bring joy wherever I go. I suppose that's true , but most of the time, I truly am happy. It's a rare thing when I am not.
I like to jump rope, play kick the can, softball, or run like the wind, be with Gennifer and my other friends Josephine Ortiz and Tricia Gamble, play on the computer (I am very good on the computer; I have one at home, and I also use one at my school), sing, rollerblade, go swimming, and perhaps my favorite thing of all, go to DisneyWorld in Orlando. I've been to DisneyWorld tons of times; it's truly a magical place!
When I grow up I want to be a princess. I think that would be cool to live in a great big castle with people waiting on me! :)
Well, I gotta go. I am up too early as it is; if mommy knew I was up, she'd take away my computer privileges! :) I am going to try to get some more sleep before I have to wake up at seven for school. Until later, this is Ladybug flying away from here! I will write in here again soon! Take care now!
~Love, your new friend in Florida, Ladybug Desiree' Jones, age 7.
