Luke's poem

Luke's poem about this picture
There was a boy.
He wanted a dog.
He sat everyday
Thinking about a dog.
If he had a dog,
He would be happy.

Coles poem

Cole had to write a poem about this picture.
Cole's poem :
I like to play Nintendo switch
I like to play lego
And I like to play my tablet.
I want to do all of these things on a hill with a sunset.

Getting Max by Luke

Getting Max

   On a warm summer August day mom said that we are going in the car for a surprise. Me, Luke and my two siblings. Rylie and Cole ran to the car right away.   
            We pulled into an unfamiliar neighborhood. Cole asked, “ Are we going to someone’s house?” “ You will see when you get there,” mom said in a suspicious voice.  Then we pulled into a drive way. Mom said, “ Hop out everyone! Don’t ring the doorbell their baby might be sleeping.”  Cole insisted again, “ what are we doing?”  Right then, someone opened the door.  She said, “ hurry in, he likes to run off.”   That made me curious, what would run off?   
   Suddenly a puffy brown ball came running to us.   I couldn’t believe how cute he was. A cute little puppy.  After that we heard mom talking to the lady, “ what kind of dog food does he eat?” What?  Why is mom asking that?  Are we taking this dog home?    “Mom”, I asked?  “Is he going to be ours?”   “Well..  do you want to take him home?”, Mom asked.   “Yes! What is his name?!”    “Let’s call him max”, I said.   Finally mom picked up Max and we took him home. 
    Now we have a cute puppy at home, that I love with all my heart. I can’t believe he is all mine.

Cole retells story The miller by James Baldwin

There was a miller that was happy.  He made everyone else happy too. One day a king wanted to be happy like the Miller. The king visited the Miller and asked him How are you so happy?  The miller said, “I earn my own bread, I love my wife, my children my friends and they love me. I own not a penny to any man. Why should I not be happy?”     The king envied the Miller and realized he couldn’t have that same happiness living in his kingdom. The kind went home sad.

Cole remembers of story


                       The good rain.   Cole telling what he remembers of the story.

   There was no rain for many weeks. A boy ran through the dead grass, farmers wifes garden was dying and there was no milk because the cows couldn’t drink enough water.  When the boy went to the pool there was no water for him to swim in. The farmers market didn’t have very much food because there was no water for the crops.  They waited for a long time for rain. They prayed that it would rain.  
    The clouds rolled in. The boy danced in the rain.   The crops began to grow again. The cow started to produce milk again. The markers had more than enough fruits and vegetables. The boy was able to go swimming again. There were many wonderful things everyone could do and have because of the rain. Their prayers were answered.

Family Solar System - by Rylie

Family Solar System

Mom, like a sun, is caring and loving. Dad, like a star shines his light towards me and shows me the way. I am being taught to be obedient like a planet. Everly like an astroid not big enough and not obedient enough to stay into orbit. They boys like a moon like a moon not as big as a planet and still has craters in them. Max like a dwarf planter to small and different to be a human. Our family is like a solar system!

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! 

By Luke with added details from mom.
