The Flying Bat

Jena's kindergarten class decided to call themselves the "Flying Bats." Each child gets a chance to take home their class mascot. Jena has been so excited and after months of waiting, she finally was able to bring the little guy home. She wanted to do everything with it. Plus we had to take pictures and write a little story/poem from the bat's perspective of the time he had at our house. Here was our adventure...

Dear Kindergarteners,

Today I decided to try something new,

I’d write my journal entry with a rhyme or two.

Jena took me home at the end of the day,

It’s been really exciting because she really likes to play.

We went to the park. I liked the slides and swings,

They’re almost as magnificent as having your own wings.

We played with her siblings and some other friends from school,

Exploring we did go, until it got a little cool.

We went to her home, bundled up and watched a movie,

Then her dad turned some music on and we got a little groovy.

Dinner was delectable, then to the bath the kids did go,

After my shower at Delaney’s, I decided to say no.

They were bathed and dressed. Good nights were said,

But instead of going to sleep we stayed up talking in her bed.

The next day was busy with all the family plans,

We drove around a lot, but luckily she has a van.

After a plethora of activities, we had a little rest

We had some snacks and chocolate. Yes, the chocolate was the best.

Then we drew some pictures of animals, plants and such

Jena’s been happy to have me here and says she’ll miss me so much.

Because soon it will be dark and another day will be done

And our time will be up, but we sure have had some fun.

I love visiting my friends and meeting new ones too.

Who will I stay with next… maybe it will be YOU!!!

Thanks Jena for a glorious time!

Love,

The Flying Bat
