Laravel4.2 - 在模型上共享自定义功能

I have 2 Models ( tables ) on my Laravel4.2 Web Application

Which is : _blog & _text

I'm still learning the process of managing data & logic between Controllers & Models with Laravel

On a my Blog Models, I got a function call listBlog , which is pass a parameter to have a dynamic querying for the _blog table.

But when comes to Text Models, do I need duplicate the listBlog function again to listText ?

It seems repeative for me & what if I got more than 5 tables that wanted to share the function ?

Below are my example codes for Blog Models also Text Models :

Blog :

use Illuminate\Auth\UserTrait;
use Illuminate\Auth\UserInterface;
use Illuminate\Auth\Reminders\RemindableTrait;
use Illuminate\Auth\Reminders\RemindableInterface;

class Blog extends Eloquent implements UserInterface, RemindableInterface {

    use UserTrait, RemindableTrait;

    /**
     * The database table used by the model.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $table = '_blog';
    public $timestamp = false;

    /**
     * The attributes excluded from the model's JSON form.
     *
     * @var array
     */

    public static function listBlog($nextID=0,$status='approved')
    {
        $query = Blog::where('status',$status);
        $query = $query->orderBy('id','desc')->skip($nextID)->take(6);
        return $query->get();
    }
}

Text :

use Illuminate\Auth\UserTrait;
use Illuminate\Auth\UserInterface;
use Illuminate\Auth\Reminders\RemindableTrait;
use Illuminate\Auth\Reminders\RemindableInterface;

class Text extends Eloquent implements UserInterface, RemindableInterface {

    use UserTrait, RemindableTrait;

    /**
     * The database table used by the model.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $table = '_text';
    public $timestamp = false;

    /**
     * The attributes excluded from the model's JSON form.
     *
     * @var array
     */

    public static function listText($nextID=0,$status='approved')
    {
        $query = Text::where('status',$status);
        $query = $query->orderBy('id','desc')->skip($nextID)->take(6);
        return $query->get();
    }
}

Because on Laravel Framework, I need create a new Model .php file Blog.php & Text.php to call eloquent method on controller eg : Blog::all(); or Text::listText(0,'rejected');

is there any way to share a global function or method like listData instead of listBlog or listText and not to copy and paste multiple time on Models.php? function on Laravel's Models file?
