It all started in August, three eggs are ready to hatch! (Well, two of them) The first came my brother, Tanner, a green chick, but here I am, not even ready. Then came my sister, Amelia, a pink chick. My mom, a bluebird named Bertha, and dad, my Labrador Retriever named Jared, were worried that I'm not gonna make it, but they gave me a second chance.

You might be wondering, how can a mammal and a bird not breed together? Well, they're different types of animals, but these two, they get along well.

Months later, I still can't get out of the egg. A new year is starting, and my family is watching the New Years Countdown."HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!" shouted everyone. My dad tossed me into the air while I'm still inside the egg. Then, it cracked!

Surprised, my family looked at the shattered egg shells. I started to whimper. My mom picked me up, and laid me onto her chest, and wrapped me around my arms.

"Yes, I always wanted a little brother!" Tanner exclaimed. "What are you guys going to name him?" Amelia asked. My mom told them, "Your dad and I thought of the perfect name." "And it's the perfect name." dad said. The parents said my name in unison, "Josh." And that's how I was born.
