Uncle Mark

 

Greats 'n' Grand's day

I love my uncle because he has an amazing job, being a police man, he is also very funny and a talented person.

I remember when a I was staying for a holiday at my Grandma's house.

He knew I was there. When the next thing you know he crept up the veranda without a click and he shined the torch through the glass door. 

It was almost brighter than the sun, and then he started banging on the door like a maniac. He is the kind of uncle that plays tricks on me all the time.

My grandpa is awesome and I love him he has lots and lots of experience in life and he tells me storys to teach me things. I think that when I go to a place with my grandpa we will enjoy every second of it.

 I love my Nanny and Koro because I'm always there when they need me. My Koro works at Lockwood and my Nan works at Korowai Aroha. My Koro is very funny because when he tells us his jokes we always laugh. My Nanny is funny too,  they always show up to everything I do. 

 I love my Koro because he loves me and I love him for who he is. He always give me everything I want. My Koro will always love me and always care for me. Sooooo I love my koro.



I love my grandma because she is always kind to me and she helped me with my wearable arts gondola. Sometimes when I am struggling with my homework she will sit down and Help me. I also think grandma is the best in the universe

I love nan becausec she loves our family and she is kind and rich

On that day my aunty came. She had a great time. I tell everybody about her all the time at school and she loved hearing about everybodys stories and talking about their time at schoo l:) Everybody loved it.

I love my Nana because she spoils me and helps me with any problem and is always kind helpful and&nbsp honest. I love you Nanna!?!
