Lucy number 7

After that they stood and looked at me and Raymond like we were crazy then walked away. Raymond and me just continue our stroll down broadway. YEAH!!! It is here May Day races I have been waiting for this so I can finally kick Gretchens butt. I did not rush to get there because the track meets are the last thing on the program, and May pole is the biggest event ever even though I can do with out it, but my mom wants me to act like a girl for once. She should be happy I am not getting new clothes dirty and sweaty trying to act like a fairy or flower or whatever you are supposed to be. I don't dance I run that is what I'm all about. So I come late to the program just in time to get my number pinned on and wait till they announce the fifty-yard dash. I also look after Raymond, I usually put him  in the little swings which is getting to tight. Then I look for Mr. Pearson, who pins the numbers on. Here comes Mr.Pearson with his pencil and clipboard, he checks my name off and hands me my number....7 my lucky number. "So Hazel, going to give someone else a break this year", Mr.Pearson asked me. I squint really hard at him to see if he is seriously thinking, I just went on to my race.
