Tatum's POV:
It has been a couple of weeks in the new house. But today is the day we go and visit our family. Which is all at Grandma and Grandma's house. They have a big pool so we're gonna all go swimming. We're gonna leave in 10 minutes and I already packed my bag with extra clothes and Fidgets and my headphones and tiger. Also my water bottle. After packing my bag, I go to my bathroom and start getting ready. I am wearing my blue flowered body bathing suit. On top of that I have my purple dinosaur T-shirt with some black shorts. Walking out my room and going down the stairs with my backpack. I see my family ready to leave. Going over to the front front door I sit down and put on my Brown sandals that zip up on the back. Then I get up and go to the car with my family.
" Are you excited to go swimming?" Dad asked.
" Yes!" yelled the triplets. It wasn't a long drive because they lived close. Once we got there, everyone got out the car instead of walking to the front door. But before we even got to knock the door swung wide open, and there was an old lady at the door.
" oh my baby" Old lady cried to my dad hugging him. She moved on from him and looked at my mom and hugged her too. After releasing my mom, the old lady looked at me and my siblings with a big smile. Before she can say anything an old men yelled at her.
" can you let them come in before you start?"
" Yes, come in go to the back that is where everyone is" She agreed and usher us into the back. I don't even know what was going on because everything was happening so fast. But next thing you know, we are in the back with the whole bunch of people.
" now we are settled I am your Grandma" She pointed to the man next to her " and he is your grandpa" Then she goes to the next man that is next to grandpa and he looks a lot likeDad. " that is your Uncle Tom and his wife Kim". They have three kids, twin 15-year-old Max and Megan. Then a 10-year-old named Nick. After them, there is my aunt Sam and her husband Matt. They have Five kids twin 16-year-old that are named Leo and Landon. Then 12-year-old girl named Lucy then 10-year-old twins Lily and Liam. After them, I have another Aunt named Olivia and her wife Charlie they have a Two year old named Daisy. then it is my uncle Dylan and his wife Jill they have four kids. One 15-year-old girl name Ella.Then a 12 year old girl named Emily. Next a 10-year-old boy named Lucas. Lastly, a two year-old girl named Natalie. That is a lot of people I just wanna go back to the house. After everyone introduced themselves. Everyone split up the adults with the two babies over to the chairs and all the boys went into the pool and started a game. Then the older girls Ella, Megan, Allison and Ava went in a group to the chairs too. Emily and Lucy went off together to play in the shallow end of the pool. Then there's me still standing in the spot I was in when we gave names. I don't know what to do. Everyone was already together.
" Come here, Tatum" Grandma called for me. Walking over there on my tippy toes. I go and sit next to Grandma.
" do you want me to take your bag" she asked me
"No" I tell her while moving to sit crisscross applesauce on the seat.
" dinner will be done soon, we will be having hamburgers or hotdogs" grandpa tells everyone. All the kids stop what they're doing and move closer to where the food will be served soon. Soon we can start getting our food. Everyone but me gets to grab some food. Once everyone backs I get up and go look at what is left and grab a hamburger and put cheese and ketchup on it. Walking back to my seat I sit down next to Grandma. Everyone is talking, but I am not. I'm just sitting there nibbling on my hamburger.
" Tatum, why are you so quiet and why are you not eating more?" Grandpa asked me but before I can answer dad says
" she's always like that at and she is a picky eater"
" is that why my grandbaby so skinny" Grandma said. Everyone turned to look at me, I just looked down and squeeze my back backpack straps. But soon everyone went back to their conversations and then dinner was over and people went back to doing what they were doing before. Which again left me sitting next to grandma again.
