Mary was very
proud of her garden. She'd planted the seeds
early in the
spring and tended to the plants every day since then.
She pulled
the weeds so they'd have lots of space. She knew that
the
plants needed plenty of water, so she watered them every day
too.
Last Saturday her friend Pam called early in the morning and
invited
Mary to spend the day at the mall. They left early and
spent the day there, even taking in a movie. Pam then invited Mary
to
sleep over Saturday night too, and she happily accepted. When
Mary arrived home on Sunday afternoon, her beautiful plants
were bent and
drooping. |
