second memoir

          I remember the day when I got my dog. I had been asking my parents for over a year if i could get a puppy. I woke up on a bright day, and looked at the calender. It was my birthday eigth birthday! When my parents awoke they exclamed that they had a special surprise for me.
          We went into the living room to open presents, and the first on was a fuzzy, fluffy, blue puppy toy. They second one was shiny, sparkly, silver water and food dish. The last one was a card. I opened it slowly and it said you're getting a puppy! Then my mom said "we'll pick her up tommorow!" Thats the time i got a dog.
