Puppy Surprise by Anna from Miss Parish's Class

A normal, boring day can easily transform into an exciting adventure when a surprise is included. One sunny hot, boring day I was at school asking my friends, Baylee, Crystal , Ashlyn, and Sierra, asking them what they were going to do since it was Friday. I know I was going to be at home bored to death since my T.V. was broken. We all had lunch together in the lunchroom. It was nasty Italian bread with some gross-looking sauce or a chicken patty. Yuck! Trust me, I choose the chicken patty! Then Miss Parish came to pick us up. Before I knew it, it was time to go home. I waited at the car ramp for mom to pick me up. She told me we were going to Grandma’s house. That was not out of the ordinary. Sounded like another boring Friday to me.

All of a sudden, I see my g-ma waiting for us; I guess she knew we were coming. When I zoomed to her, she yelled out, “Come see what I have for you.” I rushed inside as fast as I could. She said that I needed go look in my bedroom. When I zigzagged in there, I saw a little Dotson A.K.A. a winner dog. I zoomed down the hall gave my granny a big hug and ran back to my new dog, who I choose to name “Buttercup”. I thought her new name was just too cute. I picked her up carefully because I did not want to hurt her. She was so cute and cuddly, I would say. I think she was a miniature but I was not sure. My g-ma had one more thing up her sleeve; she had bought two bowls for water and food. She even bought a dog bed. Buttercup also came with a sweater that had “F.S.U.” on it. That is my favorite team! The cute sweater, I think could even fit my baby dolls! I thought my new friend was only about one year old, and would not get any bigger. I thanked my grandmother a thousand times! I held my dog so tight, you could tell she was nervous. We visited a little while with my granny. When my puppy and I arrived at home, I took all her new accessories, including her, into my room. I thought I would let her scope out the house a little while. Then I took her out to use the potty. Buttercup and I decided to ride my four-wheeler! There is a basket on the front so she can sit there. Buttercup and I enjoyed an afternoon of riding and getting to know each other.

In the end, I had an awesome day! It was the best surprise I have ever had! Whenever it is a normal, boring day again, I will remember that something surprising could happen. No one ever knows. After all, I got my Buttercup surprise when I least expected it!
