My First America Day

By Lisette

Too early my so big family take me to a airport my country, Mommie, Papa, four brother and five sister and several auntie and uncle. My eyes like the big ocean, so many waters come out them. The so big jetplane take me off so fast and I feel very lonesome so I say many time to me I go in America I go in America, and finally I can not to sleep many hour, but the jetplane’s waiter and waitress so very kind with me they see I not so happy.

I get out that jetplane near Houston and wait with my big new beautiful luggages my America auntie to come. I wait and wait and wait and wait and no auntie. Where she be? I think. America man ask me I want a drink. I say yes I thirsty but I wait my auntie. He so very kind and say you need money I give you hundred dollar and I say thank you and I like you to pick me up you so nice man but I have so very many moneys in my panty. He big smile say drink make you feel so very good. I say thank you but I wait my auntie.

Three hour I wait and one half, so my auntie come lately, and my eyes like big ocean again. We go Houston and ocean it do not stop so my first America day so very much wet.
