Quarantine Puppy

By Emmie, age 11

On Mothers Day in 2020, I woke up to a bunch of birds chirping. It was a beautiful morning. I walk downstairs and see my dad making breakfast. “Good morning! What about some delicious pancakes to start off the day?” I was in right away! I love pancakes.

When I was done eating, we went upstairs to give my mom breakfast in bed. She loved the breakfast and the card we had made her.

My mom came downstairs a little later. When she came down, my siblings and I were all watching a movie. She comes out and said, “Guys. I have to run-up to the school quickly because they are shutting the water off. I have to go do a few things really quick, but I will be back in a little bit.”

My mom had left and we had finished our movie. We were all getting pretty bored at home, so we asked our dad when she was going to be home. He said he did not know.

She runs to the front door and tells us to look at something outside. And guess what we saw? A tiny little PUPPY!

An hour later, our mom gets home. She runs to the front door and tells us to look at something outside. And guess what we saw? A tiny little PUPPY!
