  I woke up this morning feeling really groggy and slow, I sat in bed for a while wondering why I felt like that. I never came up with a solution.  I decided to get out of bed and go and join my dad and my brothers for breakfast. 
    I got out of bed and put on my favorite robe, it was so thin and airy it made me feel like I was snuggling a cloud. I walked down the hallway into the kitchen greeted my dad with a big hug and said " good morning" . He responded "well good morning Anabelle, my gosh! you're awake before 10:00!" . 
   As I made my way over to the table of the motel room my oldest brother, Ashton teased me and said in his best terrified girl voice, "Ahhhh! it's alive!"  I laughed and  threw a pancake at him. As I sat down my other brother Luke  said "good morning princess!  how'd you sleep?"  I replied " well it could've been better but, I guess it wasnt all that bad."  
   I grabbed a plate and two pancakes both with chocolate chips mixed in, my favorite.  I slathered peanut butter on them and drenched them in syrup. Ashton looked at me and said "eww, how do you eat that?"  I didn't reply but I just looked at him and proceeded to shove chunks of pancake in my face. 
   In the midst of eating his breakfast Luke did try to make small talk and he did bring up my birthday,  he said "so Anabelle,  your 15th birthday is next week, are you excited ?"  I almost choked on my mouthful of pancakes, "oh my gosh! I can't believe I forgot!"  Luke and Ashton simultaneously replied in a surprised tone, "what!?"  I said, "I completely forgot!"  Ashton said, "Anabelle, how do you forget something like that? Well I am excited, and really nervous."  Luke said "theres no need to be nervous." i replied "oh, well good luck trying to calm me down." After breakfast my brothers and I helped my dad clean up the kitchen. As soon as we finished I went to my room and collapsed onto my bed in astonishment.
