Text Box: Have you ever felt that feeling when something’s not right?  Well,  that’s the feeling I get when I go down to the basement. There’s all kinds of things in my basement and some of it isn’t mine!
            I went down to the basement and I took a look around and found a picture of some people who looked very familiar, but I couldn’t quite put my finger on it. So I looked on the back of the picture and it said “Mary Jane’s parents.”  I knew those weren’t my parents because they don’t look like the people in the picture 
            So I went upstairs to the kitchen where mom and dad were and I asked them “Who were these people?”
           They said “They were your aunt and uncle.”
          As I looked at the picture I said to my mom and dad, “Then why on the back of the picture does it say, ‘Mary Jane’s parents?’”
           “Look we didn’t want to tell you until we thought you were ready.  “You’re adopted Mary Jane!”
            I thought to myself ok so that’s why they look so familiar, their my parents, not you guys! I asked “Then where are my parents’ parents?”
         They said that they died in a car crash when I was two years old.
           I screamed so loud I didn’t know what to do, what to think!! My parents tried calming me down, which didn’t work so I ran up to my room and started to hit my pillow furiously!!
2 weeks Later
   I finally figured out everything and me and my adopted mom went to the cemetery where my real parents were buried. Everything is back to normal and I wonder have they been hiding anything  else from me?
 

Text Box:     Flower’s Forever
The flowers so bright
   As they grow, we are born.
We lose training wheels                                                     When they get rain                           We go to school                              When flowers bloom                         We’re past ourselves.                            When the bees come to get honey    We come to get a good view        When the flower’s stems fall down   We get old and get wrinkles        When the flower dies                        We also die.

Slippery Slope Falls…….
I hear sounds of the water falling down rocks as the water drifts away. I think how lucky we are to see and hear the sounds of things. I see in front of the big water fall a bridge that people would normally walk on or look over to see Slippery Slope Falls. People slide down the falls and feel the wind in their hair or  just the burn of their cuts.
       How wonderful this place is for people to enjoy and to relax. I would not give this place  up for 1 million dollars. It’s a place  for people to think and children to play. Just below the falls the water starts to calm down. You hear  the water that used to be  falling down Slippery Slope Falls  become quieter and quieter. Some rocks  may get wet some may not.

Text Box:                     The mixed up animal noises
        I was in the car with my mom when suddenly I heard a crash ,bang ,boom. “What happened” I asked mom?
She answered loudly  ”We ran into the other car because they weren’t paying attention”!
     Then I heard a meow as a cat walked by us. We were finally back home when I remembered I needed to feed my pet duck, dog, cow, and my pet frog. I fed my cow and it made the weirdest sound “Quack” cows don’t go quack they go moo. Next I fed my pet duck and he also made the weirdest sound “Woof” ducks don’t go woof. After that I fed my pet  dog and he also made the weirdest sound “Ribbet” dogs don’t go ribbet. Finally I fed my pet frog and he also made the weirdest sound “Moo” and frogs don’t go moo.
          I figured out that all my pets have all mixed up names. “How am I supposed to switch the sounds to the right animal” I asked myself? I know I’ll just put in a room and let them figure it out them selves.
         So I put the animals in a room with the right voices and let em do there thing .So I waited and waited and nothing happened so I decided to let em stay like that .Hey, it might be kinda fun!
