• Once upon a time, there was a girl named Leslie and she was walking along the road when she saw a puppy limping along the streets. As fast as she could, she picked him up and ran home with him. Its just to bad that she lived in the attic of her neighbors home, she was an orphan, and they strictly forbid dogs. When Leslie got there, her foster mom saw the dog and screamed so loud that Leslie almost lost her hearing. "What is that mutt doing in my home?", asked Tina, her foster mom. " Well, I was walking to Mary's house and I saw him limping along the road and I felt bad for him.", Leslie replied. "Get him out!", Tina shouted. So Leslie and the dog left. That night, right after Leslie had said her nightly prayers, she looked out her window and saw a shooting star. "Oh how I wish I could keep that poor dog.", said Leslie, almost in a whisper. Then she lay down and went to sleep. The next morning, she was woken up by a slobbery, wet toung gliding across her face. "You, how did you get in here?", she said as she stared at the dog in wonder. Just then Tina walked in, "I dont know what came over me, but Frank and I have decided to let the dog "visit". But it turns out, he wasn't visiting at all. That once poor, homless dog now had a family, but what confused Leslie was that she thought wishing on stars was a lie, that they didn't grant wishes. "I guess god really does answere prayers.", said Tina.
