Last night I posted about Scooter’s
“Party in the Shower.”
I still laugh when I think about how everything played out and how funny it was.

Today, I’m posting some of his writings from his 3rd grade class.
His teacher had the class do some creative/descriptive writing and kept the majority of
their stories in a portfolio on the classroom.
Since it’s the end of school, he brought that portfolio home yesterday
and I can finally see what the boy has been writing about.

As I read it, if I had been drinking milk, I know I would have snorted it through my nose.
There were many LAUGH OUT LOUD moments as I turned each page.
This boy of ours…. He makes me smile.
(I won’t edit his writing... punctuation, spelling, paragraphs ….. it’s all how he put it on paper.)

WHEN I GET THE FLU

“Gag” “gag” went the sound of me barfing. I looked at my bed and almost threw up again.
So I went downstairs and told mom. We cleaned my sheets. I was about four when this happened.

Once dad came home he to the ER. When we got there I was really scared. Then we went into a room I was running around because I was so scared. The nurse told me to take off my shirt. I love taking off my shirt. So, I obeyed.

I got three shots on my belly. My belly was poked a lot. Then she told my parents something. I didn’t hear it because I was sobbing. We went home. I was still sick but I got better.

MY OWN TRICKSTER TALE

There was a Donkey eating hay. Just then and there Turkey came out of the undergrowth on the other side of the fence. Then Donkey started talking “How are you Turkey?” The conversation surprised turkey. “Well I’m just finding some pumpkins. Can you help me?” said Turkey. Donkey said “at midnight I will tell you where the pumpkins are.”

That night turkey came to Donkey. “The pumpkins are in the middle of the forest. Touch the closest stump to the middle of the forest. I also wish you a safe journey.” said Donkey. Then Turkey set off on the journey to the middle of the forest, but where donkey was of course he was laughing.

When Turkey found the middle of the middle of the forest he stepped on a trap and fell down a serpentine hole. “I hate your advice Donkey!” screamed Turkey. An hour later Turkey got out of the hole. When he found Donkey again the sun was just barely rising. “Donkey, don’t do that again.” Turkey was furious, Donkey was calm “How would you like to have tea with me at four o’clock” ”You have a deal.” said turkey.

At four o’clock donkey was dressed in a tuxedo. When Turkey arrived all of the tea was gone and donkey was asleep. “Donkey wake up! Someone has drank all the tea!” cried turkey. But Donkey did not wake up. So Turkey went home sad.

The End?

A HOBBITS CHRISTMAS

Once there was a wizard and a hobbit. The hobbit’s name was Frodo, he wore a green cloak held together by a metal leaf. The wizard’s name is Gandalf, he had a long white beard, and a long pointy gray hat. “Orks are planning to ruin Christmas again Frodo.” ”The ork ruin Christmas every year Gandalf.” ”We must get an army ready immediately!” said Gandalf worried.

Gandalf and Frodo went to the city council. “We must get an army ready.” said Gandalf sighed. “I will lead the army myself if that’s all it takes.””Gandalf, don’t do this. If you have to I’m coming with you to war.” ”This is a dangerous business Frodo.” ”We’ll get an army ready to save Christmas!” The Mayor said enthusicasticaly.

While the army was getting ready, Gandalf was planning the attack. Once he got it ready they marched to victory. “I have to go to the bathroom cried a hobbit. “There is no place to go to the bathroom.” “Or your pants.” cried another hobbit. “I don’t want to go to the bathroom in my pants.” At that moment the emerged into a clearing at the other side there were orks. “CHARGE!!!!” “I have to go to the Bathroom!!!!” cried the one hobbit. Many hobbit’s got injured but not killed during the war. The hobbit’s killed all of the orks. It was a grusesome journey home but it was worth it. They had the best Christmas ever in all of their life.

The End

MY FAVORITE PLACE

Spray, spray went the sound of water landing on hard rock. My favorite place is Yellowstone. When I go through the gate I see beautiful scenery on the other side. I also see a glistening river. The trees are green and rustling in the wind.

In Yellowstone I smell and feel the poky pine trees. I can feel the steam of the geyser steam. I smell sulfur of the geysers. I smell the wonderful dirt. I feel the squishy grond.

I hear in Yellowstone the sound of a river running. I heard the beautiful chirp of birds. I can hear the sound of the wind blowing. The geysers bubbling. The sound of bubbling water hitting hard rock.

Every time we go to Yellowstone it is an exciting and tiring day. When we leave it is very sad. I like to do the mile long hikes. We always have a  blast. Yellowstone is my favorite place.
