"Happy Birthday to me happy birthday to me..." muttered Joseph. "I can't believe we're going to another one of Lindsey's stupid trips... and on my birthday too..." he thought. "MAMA!!!" Lindsey screeched. "WHY AREN'T WE AT THE ZOO YET?!" "Almost there baby, almost there.." soothed Mrs. Albert. We pulled into the zoo and parked. As we got out a tawny owl swooped down and dropped a letter on my head. "What's this?" I asked aloud. "Hey! Gimme that!" Lindsey barked bossily. "No! It has my name on it!" They fought for a moment and he finally ripped the letter from her greedy hands. Joseph tore the seal off and read quickly: "Dear Mr. Dawnings, we are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry..." "Mrs. Albert..." Joseph started. "This is a letter saying I can go to a magic school!" "Yes yes dear we've been expecting this ever since we took you in! The best part is you can stay there year round!" Mrs. Albert said. "I can go?!" Joseph asked incredulously. "Of course you're going! We better go get you packed!" "NO!!!!" Lindsey screamed "I WANNA GO TO THE ZOOOO!!!" "No honey. Once Joseph is gone we can go to the zoo EVERY DAY." Joseph didn't care about Lindsey's screaming, or his foster mother's eagerness to ship him off. Joseph only had one concern: "Am I getting a wand?!"
