Dear, Jackson

One night I was in bed and every night I kept hearing this loud croak. And one night I went outside to check it out and I saw a BIG horned toad. I couldn’t believe what I saw it like seeing a giant rock. So I got closer to it and then I touched it. And I couldn’t believe what it did it said “don’t touch me” In a person’s voice and at that point I walked to my house and went right to bed.  

 

When I woke up I went outside to see if the horned/talking toad was out there. I looked all around for him and then I looked behind my house and there was a big hole behind it and I looked in there and I saw him. So the horned/talking toad came out it’s hole and it’s said “ Good Morning “ Then I said back “ Good Morning “ So then I asked him a lot of questions. Some of the questions I asked him was “ How do you talk “ And he said back “ I was born like this “ So then I asked him to come inside  

 

So when the toad came in I asked him “ Do you wanna be friends “ And the toad said   

“ Sure “ So when we became friends we tried to come up with a name for the toad. So I came up with the name Jake. And the toad came up with Eddie. So then we both agreed with Eddie. So then we played tag and Eddie was it. Then he tagged me and I said “ Time out “ And then after the timeout we didn’t play tag again

So then we went inside to grab a drink of water and Eddie had been waiting to say this. And he said “ Will you kiss me “ and I said “ Why “  Eddie said back “ Because then I will become a prince “ And then I said “ Ok fine “ So then the toad and I leaned in and kiss each other and the toad went POOF. Then Eddie became. And then Eddie and I became best friends and we will never forget the day I turned Eddie into a prince.
