My Favorite childhood memory

Authors Note: I picked to write about my favorite childhood memory, because whenever I write about it brings back good memories.

  
 It was about 7:30 AM, and I just awoke from bed. For a second I sat on my bed thinking random stuff, and "Boom" it hit me I have school. I ran down the stairs to see my mom and dad eating breakfast and reading the paper. "Mom, Dad" I exclaimed, "I have school"! "No you don't Jake it's a snow day" my mom said. Then within a second a big grin came on my face and I ran upstairs yelling "Snow Day"! I went into my room and quickly got dressed out of my sleep clothes. I ran down the stairs and asked my mom if I could have my friend Sam over.
 I was just about to call, but the phone rang just as I picked it up. "Hello" I said. "Hey Jake this is Sam, I was wondering if you wanted to come out and play in the snow with me". "Sure" I said in a happy tone. My mom got me all dressed and I went to Sam's house. When I was there we went out in the snow right away, we started building forts and had a snow ball fight. Then after we were done with that we had some hot-coco and we were back outside in the cold. We wanted to play some snow foot ball so we called Sam's neighbors Ben and Jack.
 We played the longest football game in the history of games, and the next thing we knew it was 6:00 and it was getting dark. Mrs. Ramlow (Sam's mom) came out and told us we should start heading home. Everyone was starting to go home after, and we were all home real fast, because we all lived near each other. Once I got home I ate dinner with family and watched a little TV, but then I had to get off to bed for school tomorrow. For a couple seconds I sat there on my bed thinking of what an awesome day I just had.

Favorite sport poem

 Authors Note: I have chosen to write a poem about my favorite sport soccer. I'm not the best poet in the world. So please give me so comments to help me be a better one.


Everyone is up on their watching in silence.
Then two seconds later the crowd screams GOAL!
Every step I take in soccer is a moment to remember in my life.
When I score it's the best time of my life. 
And if we win I'm the most happiest person in the world
Sometimes our team wins or loseses.
When we lose I think of what we I did bad, and I improve on it the next game.
But most of all my favorite part of soocer is just playing with my friends that are on my team     
Soccer to me is my life, it's fun exciting and my favorite sport
I will never stop playing it, and watching it.
Soccer will be in my blood forever.

Destructive Force



  "Is the hurricane over mommy"asked my little brother. "Just about I'm guessing, because it be on for 2 days. In the morning after that harsh night I woke up at about 9:00 AM I went up stairs to see if my dad was home from chasing that storm last night. My dad is a storm chaser, and last night he had to leave to follow the hurricane. I look out the window and my friends house was almost fully destroyed. I looked out on more time to see what the ambulance was doing, and all I could see was my friend in a stretcher with an oxygen mask.
  Could this day get any worse I thought. I walked into the Kitchen to find my mom making breakfast for my brother. "Do you want anything Jon" she asked. "Sure why not" I exclaimed. Just then I started eating the doorbell rang. "I'll get it" mom said. I tried to see who was at the door, but I stopped trying to see who it was just as mom burst out in tears.
   I turned the corner an I saw to military men dressed up and My mom crying. The military men looked at me and said in a very low tone "kids I'm sorry to say, but your dad is dead. My brother and mom started crying, and I just sat there thinking this can't be happening my friend is dying and my dad is dead. I sat their with a glum look on my face. I don't no how many kids are out there in the world, but I know that there are not many kids that lose their dad and best friend on the same day.

Life is a Fathead

Authors Note: this writing piece is about the point of view from a Fathead I received at Christmas.

Point of view

“Cough” “Cough”. “Come on dude get me out of this place it smells bad and I keep on getting squashed”. “ Send him off to Pewaukee, Wisconsin quickly we need to get him out of this factory fast were running low on time”.”Alright load him up". All of sudden I got put in the nice triangular type box and got put in a plane and started to take  off. The plane ride was really long, after I got off the plane I got in a UPS truck. I knew I was be shipped to my new owners house! I was siting in the back of the truck and I could just barely see through the crack of the box and I saw so many more boxes. I knew it would be a long day.
We have stopped at so many houses I can’t even count. I looked through the crack again and saw I was the only one left I knew I was next! Finally the UPS driver opened the doors from behind and took me out. It was a long steep hill up to the house,but I made it in the house safe and sound. Instantly as I got in the house I was taken up stairs and someone started wrapping me. After the wrapping I was placed in a closet for three days.
Then one night I was taken downstairs and got placed under a tree.I had no idea what was happening, all I did was sit there in my triangular box until the next morning”. "Rip!” Someone is opening me it’s my new owner! Right away as I was opened from my box my new owner took me up to his room and stuck me on the wall. I am just so thankful that I am out of all trucks and planes, the wall are smooth and I know I will never fall down.
