Here is a poem that I wrote about Captain James Cook:

'On we go!'

'On we go!'

'On we go!'

Captain Cook said

'On to Tahiti!'

'On to Tahiti!'

'On to Tahiti!'

Captain Cook said

Over the seas

'Eat your cheese!'

Captain Cook said

When it began

Cook had ninety-five men

'Work work work!'

Captain Cook said

But at the end

someone had said

'This is no god!'

Nothing he says

Nothing he says

Nothing he says

Captain Cook is dead

Poems

This is another poem by my sister Moriah.

We've seen it for centuries

We've seen it for years

We've taken long journeys

That brought happy tears

But never before have we gone to the moon

We've never thought it would be this soon

But we went and we landed and stuck in our flag

The land of America

The home of the brave

Honor and Justice Report

This is one of my reports for school. The question is, Is honor more important than Justice or is justice more important than honor?

Honor and Justice

By: Haley Steele

Is honor is more important than justice? Or is justice more important than honor? Is respect is more important than fairness, or is fairness is more important than respect? Micah 6:8 says,” Do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with your God.” The instruction is this paragraph is justice, or fairness. The ‘Do justice’ means to do what is right. According to my Grandpa, if one honors the Creator, one will receive justice, and to earn honor, one must do justice,According to my Uncle Darrel, justice is more important than honor because God is just. My Grandma mentioned Psalms 8:5, which says God has crowned men with glory and honor. She said, “We need both, and God provides both." According to my Aunt Diane, honor is more important than justice because if someone id honorable, justice as well as many other attributes should follow. Honor would allow for mercy and grace as well as justice. Aunt Diane sees honor as a broader attribute exhibited many ways. In my opinion, honor is more important than justice because God is just, just is God’s job, and our job is to honor him.

Please tell me what you think.

Case's Couch

Here is Case on the coch falling asleep

Here is Case going 'nigh-night'.

Updating

Sorry I'm not updating my blog a lot, it's because my camera is having problems.

Anyway, at Central Middle School, where Moriah and I go part time, some people that work at the School Board said we can't have any more orchestra om Mondays because our teacher needs to work with the 5th graders and theur instruments. Well, the 7th and 8th grade orchestra students are compaining about it ( Whitch I agree with ). So, the 8th graders are making a movie about how orchestra is so important and all, while we ( 7th graders ) are writing letters to the School Board. My mom helped us write a letter to the School Board, and one paragraph said something like this:

When the old high school teacher was still here, she taught both 5th graders and the high school students. She taught the 5th graders afer school lesson. Why can't the new high school teacher do the same? Or if there is any "Sceduale C " money, then higher a new teacher and she can do the after school lessons.

Anyway, that's how that paragraph went.

Oh! Speaking about orchestra, Brooke got a cello a week ago!! It looks very small compared to my bass.

And I have good grades on orchestra amd math!! :)

Um... I'm doing, well, finished a report on the question ' Do you belive in Fate? So if you want to tell me what you think about that question, please write a comment on that!! Thanks.

My cousin came last weekend from Minnisoda! He is so funny. We went to a friend's house and shot- well, my cousin, me and Moriah one gun- and my parenrs and uncle shot my cousin's gun. WOW! Guns are supper loud!! I was deaf afterwords!!! But, it was fun. And my Dad bought the hanheld gun that I got to shoot.

Well, that's all I have to say right now, Bye!

Hello

There is Case saying 'Hi'.

The Tree and Me By Moriah

This is a poem by my sister Moriah:

The Tree and Me

You are tall
I am small
You can reach the Sky
I run, I fly
I catch a butterfly
You can house a nest of birds
You can house me
I can do a lot of things
But you are a tree

I got a banana malt. It was yummy!

So... my sisters, brother, dad and me ( so everyone except my mom) got back from Mason City last night!!
Moriah and I just got back from school though! Math is easy!! We learned most of it last year. So that's probably why it is so very easy!!
Well, that's all I have to say for now.

The Quiz and the Butterfly

Today Moriah and I have a math quiz today for school. But it's only for what we've learned for this week.
The picture to the left is a butterfly picture that I took a year ago.It's cool, isn't it??

Yesterday was my mom's birthday!!! : ) We went out to Culver's for Ice cream after my mom came home from her dad's.
Case wanted vanilla ice cream from a cone instead of vanilla ice cream in a cup.

Today, well, tonight, we went to our grandparents house. I took some pictures of some goldfinches, but I haven't downloaded them to the computer yet.

The picture to the right, is Case looking at a movie of him one mom's phone. He loves Movies.

When we were in the car today, he wanted to watch this one movie, but it wasn't in the car.
