Our Field Trip

Today we had a field trip.  My mom came as a chaperone and helped me on the bus. We went to the state capital.  I saw the House Of Representatives ' room and also the Senate's.  We got to go to the very top and looked down below us. It was cool.
     We travelled to the museum, too.  We had a scavenger hunt.  It asked questions about history.  We found the answers all over the museum.  We ate lunch on a picnic blanket.  There  were lots of stairs we climbed, but it was a fun field trip.

Being Treated Differently

Do you ever wonder what to say when people exclude you, but they intend to be nice?  They say,"Oh, don't let (someone) play that game.  She can't run, and she will get hurt."  I feel like, oh, even if I get hurt, let me have a shot at it.  If I get hurt, I'll get better soon and try again.  With jump-rope-ing, the same thing happens.  I trip over the rope and girls at school say,"Oh, there she is, so go slow so she won't get hurt."  Yeah, well, my braces don't slow me down, so I can do anything anybody else can.
Sometimes I say, "Why won't YOU fall, too, if I do?" and they don't answer and look uncomfortable. So I am still puzzled on that one.
