Someone I look up to is.....(because.....)

I have shared with you one of my personal heroes. Lance Armstrong has shown many characteristics that I value and would like to include in my life as a part of me. I know if I could become more like him in the way that he showed perseverance, self-discipline and hard work, I would be a better person. He was faced with what most people would have considered impossible, and he didn't give up. He was told he would probably die from cancer, and he beat it. Then he became the best at what he enjoyed (7 times!). Even if he would have died from cancer, he would have died believing in himself and knowing he did his best. I admire him because he believes in always giving it your all, even when you are faced with the impossible.

    My hero is George Washington because he battled in the revalutionary war so that we didn't have to pay taxes for every thing that we bought. Then became the first president of the United States of America which I think is pretty cool to be the first president in the white house in Washington D.C.that is in the United States of America.In the war he did a really good job of fighting in it. That is why he is my best hero out of every one but a few.

    I look up to my mom and dad because they are good to me and are always nice to people. My parents always try to push me to do better in everything.
    Like when I get a good score but not the best my mom tells me to do better next time because they wants me to be sucsesfull. I think my mom is a good role model for me.



    On the 4th of July my family saw the best fireworks. We went to Cedar to see them. there were some really cool ones. We had my grandpa's truck and the kids sat in the back and mom and dad sat in chairs. My little sister was scared to death. There was 1 firework that looked like it was going to fall on us. It was so pretty!
