Once upon a time, Butterfinger family lived in a small town in Michigan. They all had a nickname. The girls were Mya and mom. The boys were papa, Zack and Uncle Mike.
One day Mya and Zack’s Uncle Mike took them to the park. Then they went to go back home. Mom wanted to check the temperature so she did. She found out by … sticking a bat out of a window and if the bat was bending a little that meant it was going to be a normal day. If the bat was bending so much that it broke, it was not a normal day.
The bat bent just a little. It was going to be a normal day. Then it started to rain. The Butterfinger family was not ordinary.
Dad said, “Mya, can you come here? I want you to go to the store and get some butter before your Uncle Mike starts flipping out! Hurry!!”
