Chapter 4
I woke up the next day, feeling refreshed. I got up, dressed and went downstairs. Grandma was the kitchen table, drinking her coffee.
"Good morning," I said.
"Morning, honey," she said. "How'd you sleep?"
"Good," I said. "I just have to get used to the time change."
She nodded. I got my breakfast and sat down at the table.
"Where's Grandpa?" I asked.
"He's in the barn with Uncle John, Uncle Mike, James, Jake and the twins," Grandma said.
I finished my breakfast then headed to the barn where I saw Grandpa, Uncle John, Uncle Mike, James, Jake, Tyler and Tyson,
"Getting ready for a lawnmower race?" I asked.
My cousins and uncles turned around. Uncle John came over and hugged me.
"When did you get here?" he asked, breaking the hug.
"Last night," I said.
"How old are you now?" Uncle Mike asked, hugging me.
"I'll be eighteen in six days," I said, breaking the hug.
My cousins hugged me. Tyler picked me off the ground.
"How long are you down for?" he said, putting me down. "We've missed you."
"Until our grandparents get sick of me," I said. "I just want to be a regular girl for once plus I've missed all of you, too."
"Grandma and I won't get sick of you," Grandpa said.
I smiled. I helped the guys until Aunt Jen, Malia, Piper, Cassie, Matther, Aunt Caroline, Talia, Tatiana, Tina and Tommy came over.
