Zack's Precious Idioms

          One rainy day I was stuck inside my house doing homework. "4x9=36, 23-13=10, 123+321=444" It was raining cats and dogs outside. I looked at my lantern that had my watch on it. It said 1:00 PM. Perfect timing! I ran to my mom's bedroom door. She was sick as a dog. She had a 101 degree fever.

         "Mom" I said "Yes...snfffff..." she replied in a sniffly tone of voice. "Can I spend the night with Richard?. "What about my medicine?" she said in a sad voice. "I got it for you." "Well I need company while I'm sick." I then realized I had to go easy with my mom. She was sick and I had to be as nice to her as possible because you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar. I said "I will stay and take care of you." "Thank you. ' she said.

          I had to help her feel better so I went to a nearby college to learn medicine study. I made a good cure for what she had: pneumonia. So I went home as fast as I could go. I gave it to her. It made her feel better than a happy puppy. the next day she was better. But something happened while I was out in the rain. Sniff! ACTHoooooo!

This story made me chuckle Zachary. I thought it was really humorous. It also made me think about the time you had pneumonia. That definately was not a fun time, was it? I like the part in your story about how you found a cure and made me well. You ought to add a picture when you get a chance. I would like to see how you would draw me being ill. :D I also liked how you stayed to take care of me in your story. I remember you made me lunch last time I wasn't feeling well and watched movies with me.

Zach,

You seem to be good at taking care of people when they are sick. The idioms are well-used too, even though you could have more of them.

Zachary:

You did an excellent job adding idioms to your story. You were between a rock and a hard place as you had to decide to go spend the night with Richard or stay home and take care of your mom.

I hope you start using idioms in your writing all the time now. Make sure to add one in your next post.

Aren't idioms fun?

Oh, and I also think you should draw a picture! We can add it to your blog when you get it done.
