The Moonlight Club

When I was a little girl, my sister and I had a secret club just for the two of us. It was called the Moonlight Club. On warm summer nights, when the lightning bugs were lighting the evening sky with their friendly glowing bodies, my sister and I would secretly hide bread from supper under our shirts. We would then hide the pieces of bread in our bedroom under the bed. We could not let our Mommy and Daddy know about this or we would get into trouble!
After everyone was in bed, my sister and I would get out of bed. We would get our secret snack of bread and butter and climb out the window. We would sit on the roof of the garage that was under our window. We were very, very quiet so Mommy and Daddy would not hear us. We would eat our snack of bread and butter and look at the moon and the stars. We would whisper secrets to each other. Some of the things that we whispered about was what we wanted to be when we grew up. I wanted to be either an artist or a veterinarian. My sister wanted to be a nurse. After we ate all our snack and we started to get sleepy, we would climb back into our window, climb back into our beds and go fast asleep. Mommy and Daddy never did find out what we were doing in the middle of the night!
