Lindy the Turtle part 6

That evening her mom had to cal dinner three times.When Lindy still didn't come, her mom went into Lindy's room and found her asleep.

The next morning when Lindy walked into the kitchen, she saw her mom packing up the dishes into boxes. Lindy went to grab a bowl, when her mom said, "Lindy, here, use a paper bowl. We don't have the time to wash the dishes."

Lindy just grabbed one of the paper bowls. She got out her favorite cereal and some milk. Lindy's mom said, "Once you are done eating, you should start laying out some clothes that you don't think you'll be wearing the next few days.

"Ummmm.......Okay. Hey, mom," said Lindy, "when are we leaving?"

With some hesitation, her mom said, "In about a week and a half, but the moving truck is coming in a week."

"Okay, ummmm....where are we even moving to?"

"Florida."

Lindy wass suddenly filled with a bunch of emotions. She was moving from Washington to Florida. She left the kitchen to go to her bedroom without finishing her cereal. Lindy sat down on her bed, just thinking.

I love this story it is just so fabulous! It kinda makes me think that your characters are humans and not animals! I liked the part when you talked about her eating cereal because a turtle just doesn’t eat cereal!! I also think you have a very good vocabulary! Great job!!!
