Rough Draft- Moving Away

Dedicated to all my amazing nieces and nephews.

Especially those who have moved away.

Mommy says we have to pack our boxes.

She says we have to go, but i don't want to leave my friends.

Mommy says I'll make new friends,

but I'm still afraid.

It's finally time to leave our home,

and we finally arrive at our new house.

My new room is beautiful, but still empty.

As the days go by, my room started filling up.

But my heart still missed my old friends.

Today was the first day of my new school.

I did not know anyone.

At lunch I sat alone,

but a girl came up to me.

We started talking.

And she gave me her phone number.

Turns out moving isn't that bad after all.

Moving is a scary thing,

but making friends could make

it better!
