He made me cry!

Look what Adam gave me for Christmas -

A handmade calendar.

With a different picture for every month.

January and February.  This might be the last time I get a paint print of his hands.

March came with a poem.  A poem that made me cry as I tried to read it aloud Christmas morning.

Adam was very happy with himself for being able to make me cry.

And I think it makes the gift extra special.

"I am an older brother, and a kind person.

I wonder when life will be found on another planet.

I hear songs all around me.

I see life story's unfold.

I want for peace to last forever.

I am an older brother, and a kind person.

I pretend for every game.

I feel the pain of others.

I touch my inner thoughts.

I worry species will end.

I cry when they do end.

I am an older brother, and a kind person.

I understand the problems of our environment.

I say we can fix them all.

I dream when that day will come.

I try to make it come quicker.

I hope others will help.

I am an older brother, and a kind person.

--Adam"

April is really spring-y.

And so was May.

And May brought another poem.

June is bright and July is patriotic.

August feels beach-y.  Its a good month to visit the beach.

September brings school and a fall sense poem.

"Fall is orange.

It sounds like busy squirrels.

It tastes like pumpkin pie.

And smells like turkey.

Fall looks like read leaves.

it makes me feel the comfortable chill in the air.

--Adam"

October with a scary monster (or bat) and a happy jack-o-lantern for Halloween.

November with leaves and a poem about pugs.

"Pugs

flat, faced

currly, tailed, snoring,

somehow they are cute,

Pugs

--Adam"

December - Christmas tree, gingerbread man, snow and snow man, COMPLETELY feels like December.

All the months really feel like those months.  The colors he chose.

The pictures he chose/drew.

They all feel just right.

The back of the calendar.  I made it big so you can see what he wrote. 

The goofiness of it is so 'Adam'.
