Dear Grandma Sharon,

It snowed really hard today and the pond it totally frozen over. I walked on it a little bit and jumped on it and slipped. I could not crack the ice by my self so I got a heavy rock and threw it off the deck and that cracked it.  What's the weather like over there? Have you gotten any snow? I hope that all of the family out there is doing well! How is Grandma Agnes? Please tell her I love her and I miss her.

I love you and I miss you very much!!!
