Once upon a time, in a hospital in Virginia on a Thursday afternoon, a little boy named Sam Mouttet was born. Sam had curly blonde hair when he was born. Sam's father was Nathan but Sam called him Daddy. Sam’s mother was named Kristi but Sam called her Mommy. Sam couldn't talk when he was born, but that’s what he called them in his head. Daddy took Mommy to the hospital on Wednesday night. Mommy and Daddy stayed at the hospital with Sam for three days. Sam had to stay in the hospital for a few days to rest. Sam rode home in a car with Daddy and Mommy from the hospital on Saturday.
Daddy, Mommy and Sam had a dog named Milo. Milo had long reddish hair, a black nose, and a pink tongue. Milo lived with Daddy and Mommy for a long time before Sam was born. 
Milo, Daddy, and Mommy had two old cats. The cats liked to stay home and sleep. Milo liked to go for walks in the park. He also liked to go on secret adventures.
While Daddy and Mommy stayed at the hospital for Sam to be born, Milo had to stay by himself for a few days, so he decided to go on a trip to Hawaii. On Thursday morning, Milo dialed the phone and called a taxi. While Milo was waiting for the taxi, he packed his suitcase. He packed his chew toys, some books, some dog food, and some pictures of his family in his suitcase. When the taxi arrived, he jumped in. The taxi took him to the airport. The taxi driver knew to go to the airport because he saw Milo’s suitcase. When he got to the airport, Milo paid the taxi driver, checked his suitcase and bought a one-way ticket with the money he had been saving in his secret hiding place.
Milo rode on the airplane until it reached Hawaii. When the plane landed, Milo got off the plane, got his suitcase, and found a coconut on a palm tree. Milo found a nice hotel. Milo checked in and headed off to a nice room. The room had a doggy bed and doggy treats. Milo called home to check on the cats. They were okay. They were busy robbing the refrigerator and drinking all of the whipped cream.
Milo ran to the beach and went surfing. He visited the inside of a volcano. He chased a hula girl through a coconut field. He chased cars on the busy streets in Honolulu. He ate his coconut and some macadamia nuts. He washed it all down with pineapple juice. He also ate some of his dog food mixed with the pineapple and coconut. After his meal, he started to miss his family, even the old cats.
Milo built a raft and an emergency submarine to get home. Milo got home on Saturday, just a few minutes before Daddy and Mommy got home. When they opened the door, Milo saw Sam for the first time. Milo liked Sam, but he was very small. Milo knew that Sam would grow fast. He looked forward to taking him on his next adventure.
Nicholas the Great!
