"Going to the market"
by
serena


ne day my mom told me to go to the market to get some food. I asked her what she wanted me to get she wrote down on a peice of paper what she wanted me to get.

I was on my way to the market when I ran into this little girl, she looked about 5 years old. I asked her what her name was and she said,
"my name is Mary"
I told her my name was Serena.

she had told me that her parents had left her and a couple of years later she said that they had died and that she was all alone and so I told her that my mom could maybe adopt her.
She said,"That would be wonderful I would love that, then I could be in a real family again."

So we went to the market got what my mom wanted and went back home. I told Mary to wait outside. I went in and gave my mom the food and I helped her unload the food when I was helping her i asked,
"mom, would you ever adopt a little girl that was alone withuot a family?"
She stopped at what she was doing and looked at me in a sad face.
She said, "yes. Why do you ask?"
I went out side and got Mary and brought her in. I said,
" because i found this girl her name is Mary and she is five years old, her parents left her and a couple of years later they died."
My mom just looked at me and said,
"yes i would adopt her."
So when Mary heard that she started yelling and laughing.

The next day they went to court and got papers and my mom signed the papers and i said,
" I finally have a sister."

We went home and baught My sister some clothes and baught her some toys and some stuff that she would need. When they were all done they fixed diiner and ate and talked and they lived hapily ever after



The End
