It went something like this:
Mom: I like children that do their work. I like children that don't complain and cause problems with their siblings.
#1: Ah, okay.
Mom: You have an assignment. I want a list of 25 things you are grateful for.
#1: Okay.
The conversation was a little more intense than that but I am preserving his privacy just a little bit.
Here is the list:
1. I am thankful for books
2. video games
3. legos
4. Scouts
5. Electricity
6. Friends
7. food
8. Water
9. Air
10. A home
11. clothes
12. wood
13. mom and dad
14. church
15. Sunday school
16. medicine
17. snow
18. family
19. science
20. the world
21. a government
22. money
23. a prophet
24. animals
25. school
Did you notice that DH and I came in at #13? and school at #25? giggle

Love the list -- gotta use that one two. I think it is pretty good that you made the list being the one that made him write it (he, he!)
or maybe he was just doing it to suck up. I think I will believe your explanation!
I love the list too. I also love that simple "wood" came in ahead of mom & dad.
