11/25/13 I am Grateful For....................................

I am grateful for food and water
They make me stay healthy 
I am grateful for blankets
They make me tosty and warm
I am grateful for friends
They make me happy and bubbly
I am grateful for my bed
It makes me drift off to sleep
I am grateful for my family 
They help me get through tough times
I am grateful for snow
It turns the world in to a winter wonderland
I am grateful for my dogs
They always treat me best
I am grateful for my bunny
She is my sweet little honey
I am grateful for my turtle
His name is Murdle
I am grateful for music 
It gives my life a beat
I am grateful for a home
It never leaves me alone
I am grateful for life 
It gives me a meaning
I am grateful for the chance to explore
It gives me something more

11/7/13 Funky Freeze Tag

It was a cold and crisp day in Michigan and waiting for the bus in a freezing car is not exactly perfect for a Monday morning. The time went by as slow as molasses.

            Finally, the bus came and we jumped out of the car and walked up the cold black steps and plopped our butts into a seat. The bus drove on and my friends and I talked about what we were going to be for Halloween. We pulled up to Berkshire and let some kids off and we drove away but then our bus driver noticed that THERE WAS A KID SLEEPING ON OUR BUS. We had to turn around and wake up the kid. After that we drove to the preschool to pick up kids. When we got then we all ran off the bus and got ready to play freeze tag. Everyone was frozen but me, Jerry and the tagger, his little sister Maya.

The area smelled like rotten garbage and perfume and the light from inside the building poured out the clear glass windows.

            “GO!” 
I yelled and ran off in the other direction.
We began the game and Maya came after me first. I ran around to the other side of the white bus parked there and started screaming at the top of my lungs.

            “A LITTLE GIRL IS GOING TO GET ME HELP!!!”

“HAHA!” My brother Nick laughed behind us.

I sprinted around the bus into a cluster of my friends and when I ran into the corner near the blossoming red tree Maya tagged me.

            “JERRY! COME UNTAG ME NOWWWWW!” 

“I’m coming!” He yelled from the other side of the bus.

I remember when I was little and I tried to play on my little pudgy legs running around my yard.
‘Please Jerry,’ the words spun around in my head like a Frisbee. All of a sudden Jerry ran up and tagged me and I ran after him to the other kids.

When I ran up everyone was frozen but Jerry and I again. Maya came running up to us about to tag us but we both dodged her hand and ran to get the others untagged. We all ran to the side of the bus and waited for Maya to come. Maya whipped around the side of the bus like a bullet and startled us so that I jumped. She ran right at me and I had nowhere to go so I stood there while everyone behind me ran off and then she tagged me. The cool air was crawling up my neck like spiders and I noticed that the grass had a little bit of dew left on it and it was floating up like mist on a waterfall creeping around the school like a shadow. The orange sun was lighting up the dull sky.

Even though the cold crisp air was creeping up everyone’s necks, we all had fun playing our little game in the little lot next to the big yellow bus in the misty air. Everything was fine on that Monday morning in October since we didn’t care what was going to happen next.

Trick or Treat 2013 11/1/13



“Trick or Treat” my brothers and I yelled in harmony wait let me back up its Halloween Night and my family is doing their yearly rounds of trick or treating. My brothers ran up to the little brick house with me trailing behind in my giant clown shoes clopping against the cobblestone. We walked up and sang “ Trick or Treat” to the person in side of the house.
“ Hi kids how are you” a middle aged man said to us dropping 3 or 4 pieces of delicious candy in to our bags.
“ Nice costumes” he said  
“ Thanks” We said
We were about to leave and he stopped us and said
“ Can I squeeze your nose ?”
“Ok” I said with a little doubt in my voice
“ SQUEAK” my nose rang in to his house
