Hi, I'm Marvin Monkey. I am 7 years old. I'm in first grade. Have you ever had a day where you felt like nothing was going right? Well I have... It all started on a Monday while I was getting ready for school. First I burned my banana strudel while I was holding the knob on the toaster down to see if I could make it smoke. Have you ever had a burned banana strudel? They taste yucky! My mom thought I did it on purpose but I told her "I did it on accident!" I had to eat pop tarts, yuck!
Next, when I was getting dressed I put on my banana shirt backwards so the kids at school would think I had a new shirt. Mom and Dad thought I was goofing off. I told them "I did it on accident!" I had to wear an ugly plain old white shirt.
Then
while my sister Sara and I were waiting for the bus I decided
to see how high I could jump. I don't know how but I landed
on her backpack and crushed her snack. She yelled at me
and stormed off to tell Mom and Dad. I told them "I did
it on accident!" I had to give her my snack.
 When I went in the school I dropped my books because I was pretending they were a bomb. My teacher looked up and said "Who did that?" I told her in a nice clear voice "I did." I said "I did it on accident!" She took my book away.
That night when I was taking my bath I decided to make a whirl pool. I sort of got water everywhere. I told my Mom "I did it on accident!" I had to mop the bathroom floor.
When I went to bed that night I felt terrible! When my mom was tucking me in bed I said "Mom, you know all those things I did today on accident? Well, they really weren't on accident and I'm sorry." Mom said "I know you'll make better choices tomorrow. I love you monkey, sleep tight."
