Luke's story Everly and Max

                                                                               Max and Evie

One beautiful morning, Everly and Rylie woke from a good night sleep. Everly began to cry because she was hungry. Her loud cries woke up some of her family. Her rowdy brothers Luke and Cole ran on by to go play upstairs. Mom yelled for the boys, “ Come back down here!” Mom wanted to go for a walk, but first they must clean their room. Luke and Cole loved going for walks so they quickly cleaned their room by stuffing everything under their bed.  The boys excitedly told their mother they were ready for their walk! Mom said, “Get read for our walk and Cole don’t forget to put your socks on!”  Cole chose the bike, Luke picked the scooter, their older sister Rylie picked the other scooter.  Mom put toddler Everly in the bright red jogging stroller. Before they began their walk mom said, don’t forget Max!  Max was the crazy naughty doggie.

       It was a beautiful day for a walk.  The sun was shinning and the soft breeze kept them cool.  The boys sped ahead as fast as they could.   Cole rode over a small rock that threw him off of his bike!  “ Mom!” Luke shouted. “Cole has fallen from his bike!”   Cole was bleeding from his head to his toes.  Scratches on his nose,  gouges on his knees and those toes with no socks had gravel pushed into his skin. 

      When mom panicked she forgot she was holding naughty max’s leash!  When Max realized he was free he ran with all his might. He was running so fast his back legs would hit his front legs.  “Catch that Dog! Come back Max!! Yelled mom.  Rylie and Luke ran after him but could not catch up.  Everyone was worried, Max was no where to be found. 

  They all walked back home with sad faces and lowered shoulders.  As they walked into the garage  Everly began to point and laugh.  It was Max!!  He jumped up into the stroller and gave Everly a big lick.

    Cole got bandaged up, Everly got her nap, and a movie was put on for a relaxing afternoon. Until mom saw what was under the boy's bed!

Cole's story about Rex

                                                                      Sally and Rex

Rex is a big red long dinosaur. Sally is someone he wants to learn how to get along with. Sally is known for her very sweet and loving personality. Rex is a grumpy dino and wants to learn to be more like Sally.

    One day Rex decided to visit Sally at her beautiful green farm. When he got there, he went to the  bright red door. Rex thought that door was way to small for him to go in. So he thought..  I am just going to go home……  but right about then Sally comes out of the door.  “Rex! What are you doing here, said Sally in her sweet calm voice”.  Rex answered nervously “ I came to see if you could help me learn how to be sweet and kind like you. I am a grumpy dinosaur.”   “Ohhhh Rex” said Sally.  “ I would love to help you learn kindness.”   Sally grabbed Rex by his stubbly little arm and let him into her great big yellow barn.    “ First you must help someone. I want you to go to town and see if you can find someone that needs help.”       So Rex did.  He saw Baby Jane needed help to cross the water. So..  Rex but her on his back and walked her across. Rex ran back to Sally!  “What do I need to do next to be kind!?”  Rex said with excitement.   “Next I want you to find someone you can share something with.” Sally said in her kindest voice.  So Rex knew exactly what he wanted to share with someone.   His most favorite toy of all time. His stuffed baby cat.   He pulled it from his pocket and handed it to Sally and said. "Would you like to play with my cat?"    " Ohhhh  Rex!…..   I think that you already know how to be kind and sweet."
