If I fouldn wet footprints then I would follow them to the attic. Then, I would find a man with koala bears. Then out of nowhere a clown with an ice cream truck hits me and yells," Children!"

The word that best describes me is probably sensitive. That word best describes me because I will cry if someone else cries. I could cry is my mom went to New York, or something like that and I dont get to see her for a couple of weeks.

I think it is a good idea to set aside grudges against your enemies and to give them a chance but is they dot want to give up their grudges then at least you know you tried and it didn't work.If you give them a chance and they are willing to try then you might make some new friends.

If I saw wet foot prints on my floor leading to my attic I would probably scream because we don't use our attic and we never will we haven't even went to see what it looks like because we are so frightened to even do that. So one word to describe how I would bew feeling is helpless or maybe curious or both at the same time.

One snowy saturday, I was playing inside my house one snowy Saturday and found a trail of strange, wet footprints leading from my front door tomy attic. They were the strangest footprints ever. I fallowed the footprints all the way up to the creeky attic. When I got there, I saw a little duck huddled up into a corner. I picked him up told my parents so we could send him somewhere safe.

I was playing out side one day when I came across footprints I fallowed them to find out who would make this tyoe of footprints. afte I found out that thye went into the attic I would try to be quit to find out or what did this. I looked up to see if I could find anything. I heared a noise that sounded familer. It was my brother trying to get something for my mom that she wanted him to get. He tolled me to help so I did. That salved the mistery of they footprints and the noise form the attic.

If I found a trail of wet foot prints I would call my mom and her boyfriend so they are the ones to see who it is. so it sounds like I am scared but I can say one thing I am not stuipd. I will not risk my life for finding something out. Then when my mom says what was in the attic she would say that there was nothing dangerous in there but my neighbor.

Ten I hear some feet running around, then when I look it stops. Then something taps me on the shoulder and it is just my cousin and he is only 2 years old and I had screamed because I was scared.

But then I here some laughing noise up stairs that sound familier so I go and cheack it out. When I got up there I see Julie and Casey there were there waiting for me with some hot chocolate and muffins. I looked at them and smiled then we all huged and said "WE ARE BESTiES TiLL THE END" and laughted. then we fell because there shoes were still wet. after we ate the muffins and drank the hot chocolate we went back downstair and went to take funni picture and then stead up till three in the moring laughing about what we did along time ago....
THE END

The words that describe me best are curious because I always want to know what is going on. The next word is out-spoken because i always say what i think even if it is sometimes mean I am honest thought when it comes to that. I am accident-prone I always fall or trip it sometime is really funny

If I saw wet footprints on a snowy day I would probably think it was mom or dad looking for the shovel in the attic or the snow,and he had came in from outside so that is what made his feet wet.

Anonymous said...

If I had to pick one it have to be accident prone because most people check it out but I woundn't.

I will follow the footprint and if it was so cool for the muumes I will take it there.
