Immigration Story by M.R.

My Immigration Story
     There was a little girl named Tela whose dad (named Taren), Grandpa (named Tyler), Grandpa (named Tanner) and five brothers Tom, Tim, Tao, Trent and Taleo (in the order of oldest to youngest) were in the army.  Tela was the youngest of the ten kids.  She had to stay at the house with her mom (named Tea), four sisters Tabby, Tally, Tayca and Taillike (in order of oldest to youngest), Grandmama Tina and Grandma Tink and the two cats Tamara and Tyron. 
    
     They lived in Greenland.  They spent all of their time dusting, cleaning, vacuuming, sorting, moping, wiping, washing the dishes cooking, doing laundry, shopping, sweeping and folding. 

     Then her family came back from the war and said that they were moving to Canada! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!” squealed Tela. 
     “We are moving to the land of the free?!
      “Yes,” said Taren, “the land of the free. 

     In addition, they were moving there in eight and a half months. This was for sure the best day of their lives.  They celebrated to almost no end.  The next day they found that Tamara and Tyron were going to have kittens!  And even better mom was pregnant… with twins.  They decided if they were girls, they would be called Tilce and Talic.  If they were boys, they would be called Talo and Tony. 

     Seven months later they were taking all their money out of the bank and had it turned into Canadian money and waited there until the kittens were born.  The cats Tamara and Tyron had four kittens named Tala, Timmy, Teny and Talea.  A month and a half later they were on board the ferry to Canada from Greenland. 
   
     They arrived in Newfoundland and were overjoyed to be there, to be a part of Canada and to start a new life. A couple of weeks after they arrived in Newfoundland, Tea gave birth to the twins Tony and Talic. 

     Years later they got their Canadian citizenships and were very happy with their lives.  Their journey happened thirty years ago.  The third youngest child Tela is now in her twenties and they are still in contact. 

     Mine is a different story.  This is Marla Carina signing off.

  1. So cool the way that you made all the names start with "T".
