These are the words given to me:

TEETH
TONGUE
GUM

Last week, I went on EPIC trip #11 with my friend. We decide where to go and have lots of adventures during the time we are gone. Last week, I drove up to her place in New York. We then drove to Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. I completed visiting all of the states in the Atlantic seaboard while on the trip. All of my answers are related to the trip.

When I am driving, I chew a lot of gum. It keeps my mind alert. I focus on something. This helps me concentrate on making sure I get to my destination safely.

My friend thought it was ridiculous. I kept sticking out my tongue when she was taking my photo. I did the same when I was taking selfies. Hey, you have to have a little fun. Most of those photos were deleted, or she didn’t even take them.

When I got home from the trip, my dog was so happy I was home. I got a nap. Immediately after getting up, he smiled and showed me all of his teeth. He knew we were going on a ride to get a Pup Cup. He was a happy dog. (He has learned how to give smiles to people. He’s not angry when he does it. It’s usually showing us he is happy, or he knows he has done something bad. One time, he stood by my mother-in-law’s bed, smiled and scared her as she woke up from her nap.)

Stay kind,
Traci
