“I want to be a writer,” she said. She feared they’d try to stop her. But they didn’t. Her teacher promised to help.
“That’s wonderful!” exclaimed Mom. Grandma’s face lit up.
Dad set up a desk for her.
So she pulled the keyboard toward her.

Michaele Jordan wrote this story.
My cat sat on the corner of my desk and watched me type. Every day for twelve years. Sometimes she’d tap my keyboard to correct my spelling. Today she wasn’t there. So I put a picture of her there instead. But the picture doesn’t spell any better than I do.
