SUCH A KID!

Published!
No, not me…

My 9-year-old granddaughter.

I’m thrilled!

She competed in a city-wide contest…

For a short story starting with…

‘It was a dark and stormy night…”

That the city paper initiated.

Many kids entered…

But out of all of those…

In her age category…

Hers was chosen.

Here it is:

It was a dark and stormy night. My dog was

hiding under the couch, whimpering and crying.

I lay in my room, not knowing what to do and very

scared.

I heard something in my closet. I opened it not

knowing what to do if a ghost popped out and

screamed “BOO!”

“Ahh!” I screamed!

It was just my sister.

“You scared me,” I said.

My parents came running up the steps.

“What was that loud scream?” my mom asked.

“I don’t know,” I said.

“I think it was just thunder,” my sister said.

And we went giggling into the next room.

Just had to share.

Great, eh?

Have a great weekend!

Always, Em-Musing
