Brady, Rex, and Luke's Thoughts on Gratitude

Brady
I like when the missionaries come over!  I'm sad that he is leaving!  I'm happy that he is fun and that he likes it!  MOm and dad, I love you! My whole family , I love you too!  And that's all!

Rex
I like cars! I'm going to put my horses and cars in my bed!  OKAY?
Your shoes fit you!
I love mom's bed!
You have a good purse!
Carson needs shoes!
I'm not done
I want you to wash my hair , not dad!
We need jackets!
I like your eyes...(points) the ones right there!
It's time to go to bed!
But I'm not done....
I love those earrings! (I'm not wearing any?) :)
I like boxes....they are AWESOME!!

Luke
Gratitude is like happiness! 
Gratitude changes everything!
If your showing gratitude your showing happiness!
Gratitude is like a light to happiness! 
If you show gratitude your in good shape!
Jesus wants you to show gratitude!
All of us can get better at gratitude!
Gratitude is a days smile!
Gratitude is the BEST!
If your sad, find gratitude!
I wish you could have gratitude too!
Walk in the Lords way and do the things that he tells you and do gratitude!
A smile is a good way to show gratitude!
I find gratitude by finding happy stuff in things.  Like at recess I had no one to play with so I find fun stuff to do on my own!  I decided to just practice my form on football, and I had a lot of fun!
When my friends were over, I just wanted to play football,they wanted to chase the dog, and I still wanted to play football, then after they chased the dog, they wanted to play hide and seek, and I was begging them to play football, and finally they played it, and I didn't want to play football anymore, and they wanted to. I decided to go with what your friends want so that I could enjoy them while they were here!
Well, we use to be at lifetime fitness. At lifetime, I played basketball, I went to the daycare, and we did all that fun stuff. Then we switched to Gold's gym. At first I didn't really like it, the second time, my mom took us, and she forgot my football cards, which is what I was going to do to have fun!  They don't have very much fun stuff, and at lifetime they had video games, a baby place, a jungle gym, basketball gym, and tons of stations that we could go to, like karate, sports place, yoga, and ballet, and tons more!  Now I'm stuck at Gold's gym. I was thinking of a way to have fun, and then I thought of a way! First do push ups, sit ups, planks, laps around the table, wall sits, and then I found a way to have fun without all working out!  I decided to play basketball by the baby hoop. Then I went back to doing my workouts! The good thing is I found a couple of really funny kids! One was a 1 year old who spit all over the place. The other one was a little girl who was funny! I really enjoyed that! The reason this fits into gratitude is because I changed my attitude about how terrible of gym this is. I can't lie it's not the best gym. But I did have a little fun there! Then my mom said she was sorry she forgot my cards. I told her I was bored. But really I was sooo bored! I did enjoy a lot of stuff! While I was there I met 2 funny people, talked to my brothers and sister, worked out and did laps, played basketball, and I sat there and thought about all the fun things I might do in the future!
I guess that wraps it up!
The end
