Journal 2- Manners

Max and Ruby were playing outside their house one day. Their parents were out of town on a business trip. Max and Ruby were not old enough to take care of themselves,since they were such young bunnies, so their grandmother came over to babysit them for the weekend. Max and Ruby were not very good at sharing. Each day Max would bring out his toys, which were very loud, and annoyed Ruby and her friends. Ruby was trying to prepare for her upcoming fireflies meeting with her troops. The meeting was at her house this week, and she needed to have everything prepared. Max was playing with his firetruck outside in the grass, but he kept running the firetruck into all Ruby's decorations. Ruby told him many times to stop and play with his toys elsewhere, but Max was not satisfied with that. He wanted to use his firetruck to carry Ruby's decorations to the table. He just wanted to help out! Ruby was not happy. She was nowhere near ready for the meeting and already her troop was knocking on the front door. She hurried to get dressed so she could answer the door in her uniform. When her friend Harriet and Louis  came in the door, they forgot to take off their shows, and Ruby noticed. They were not being very polite. They dragged dirt throughout Ruby's house. Ruby was very upset. Nothing was going as she hoped it would. She politely asked them to take of their shoes and follow her to the table. When they got to the table Ruby was so surprised at what she saw! Max and used his firetruck to take all of the decorations to the table. He helped out his sister so that the table looked good when her troops came for the meeting! Ruby was so proud of Max and felt bad for being mean to him in the first place, so Ruby allowed Max to eat with the troop and he got a special dessert at the end. Ruby doubted Max very much, but even though Max was little, he still helped Ruby in the biggest ways possible!
