Despicable Me 2
A Catty Problem
One windy and chilly Tuesday on September 28,1997, in Scratch City, Nevada, there was a tragic incident that involved three little kittens and their lost mittens. Katie, Gregory, and Emma Smith were picking some ripe tomatoes from their mother’s garden, with their mittens off, so that they wouldn't get tomato juice on them, and so that their mother, Sasha, could make some of her famous salsa. Then as their mother was watching the news, a tornado popped up on the screen and warned her that there was a tornado coming in their area. Sasha quickly called the three little kittens in a rush, and they raced in forgetting all about their mittens. As they were in their cozy, safe basement, a knitting commercial came on, and it reminded them of their mittens. They started mewling to their mother that they forgot their mittens outside and she said,” You naughty kittens you shall have no pie tonight!” After the tornado passed, they all went upstairs and ate their food in silence. Stripes, their dad, came home from work, and he asked, “Why all the sad faces?”
Emma told him that they lost their mittens, and they couldn't have any pie for dessert. Stripes said, “Oh that's too bad.”
That night, as the kittens lay in bed, they dreamt about the pie and about their lost mittens. In the morning, they woke up with new mittens laying on their bed, while Sasha was making a pie in the kitchen.
“Mama, Mama!” the kittens cried. Their mother asked them what they were dying to tell her, and they said they found new mittens on their bed.
“Oh you are such good kittens you found your mittens! Now you may have some pie!”
An Autobiography of Haley Smith
Haley Smith was recognized as a life saving marine biologist. Yesterday morning a dolphin got tangled in a net and Haley was the first person that they called. She dove into the water and untangled the net from around Zuba, the dolphin, but unfortunately the dolphin was exhausted from trying to wiggle its way free from the fishing net, and Haley had to pull her up from the water and lay her down on Mission Beach. Haley is married to Asher Smith and they have four children, Emma, Elijah, Katie, and Austin. She went to Norfolk Senior High School and was part of the yearbook and she played in the band and orchestra. Her first job was a worker at Dairy Queen. She attended college at Phoenix University and she majored in marine biology. She currently lives in San Diego, California, near the beach, and her hobbies include walking around the block with her husband, scrapbooking, and spending time with her family. Haley is currently a marine biologist and she owns a bakery with her sister. Her plans for the future are to seize the day. She plans on keeping her degree and not earning another one, she will also keep her job as a marine biologist. Her favorite place that she would like to travel would be Germany because her Great Grandmother grew up there, was born there, and she has always wanted to go there. She also looks like she did when she was twenty, thin and stylish! As you can see Mrs. Haley Smith is a life saving, caring, fun person.
