STEP 1:
LISTEN TO THE AUDIO
We moved to a new house. My father's job was transferred to another state. My parents bought a house close to my father's new office. Our new house is also close to my school and my brother and sister's school. They are in high school. I'm still in elementary school. We shipped my mother's car and we drove my father's car. The moving truck came this morning. We have so many boxes to unpack. I can't locate any of my things. I opened a box and found my brother's and sister's clothes and shoes. Where is my stuff? I opened another box and found my mother's jewelry and toiletries. I looked through several boxes. I finally found some of my things. They were in the back of the moving truck. I wanted to find my favorite stuffed bear. I sleep with it every night. It is very special to me. My godmother gave it to me. She is my mother's best friend. They have known each other for many years. We are going to miss her. She is going to visit us during the summer. My grandparents' vacation home is only an hour away. We plan to meet there for some summer fun. I need to find my travel journal. Maybe, my other things are in my parents' room. We forgot to label the boxes, so they are all in random rooms.
