(Grace's Pov)
----------
I waited outside the school for my mom to pick me up. I can't stop thinking about that new kid, Simon. He's really strange. At least he's nice. I'm happy he's not rude or anything. I saw my mom pulling up to me. I didn't tell her much about Simon.
When we got home my mom handed me a plain and boring looking notebook. It was actually quite ugly.
"I hope you like it!" my mom smiled.
"Um... what's this for?" I asked.
"It's for your dream journal Gracie," she said looking a little hurt. Oops. I forgot about that. I hope she's not too upset...
"Thanks mom!" I hugged her.
"I figured you could decorate it with some of your art stuff!" she smiled.
"Great idea!" I thanked her and ran upstairs. It's about to get messy!!!
I got out all my favourite art supplies. Glitter, paint, gems, stickers and so much more. I painted the cover of the journal with a pastel blue paint. Then, I painted a white cloud in the middle. I made a sparkly border around the cloud with some silver and blue glitter mixed together. I wrote "Dream Journal" in thick sharpie inside the cloud. I then added some blue, white and silver gems randomly around the rest of the cover. It looked magical!
I then grabbed my binder out of my school bag and started on my homework. I hate doing homework, but I try and finish it just after school to get it over with.
Later, I headed downstairs for dinner. My mom had cooked some barbecue chicken. Delicious! We talk a lot during dinner. We talk about everything from Alaska to Zebras. Everything. The barbecue chicken was really tasty. It's one of my favourites. After dinner, we had some ice cream for dessert. After that I got up and put away the dishes.
"Goodnight" I hugged my mom.
"Goodnight" she hugged me longer. Then I turned around to head up to my bedroom.
"Sweet dreams!" she said after me. I turned around she and winked at me. I love my mom.
