My favorite animal is my pink toe tarantula Sonic. I love to watch her build her webs with her eight adorable legs. Sometimes she dances for me. I begged my mom for her when I was four. So I've had her for a long time too.
I love to go fishing with my dad. I'm good at fishing. Sometimes I catch more than everyone else. My mom just catches water.
