My name is Mya .I am very poor and hungry,my mom died because of a high fever.My dad is in the war,he said he would come back a year ago so I think he is now dead.I live in a creek.I have to eat bugs and nothing else.I saw someone pass by me and said I look like I am about to die!!!So she picked me up and took me to her BEAUTIFUL HOUSE!!!!NowI am happy,she said that she would adopt me and when the papers come in she will love me just the way I am.
A year later....


I am now 11 years old I am in the sixth grade.I am so excited because my dad is now at my new home.The lady that adopted me and my dad got married.SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Tommorow I get my very first puppy.Now we have alot of money.


Thankyou god for letting my dream come true!!

I will never forget you mom!!!!
