Once upon a time there was a big family.  They loved each other very much. They liked to do many things together. They liked to go camping, swimming, bowling, and bike riding.  They also enjoyed working together. They knew that when they worked together things got done a lot faster so that they had more time to play.

One Saturday the family was working hard all day.  They weeded the garden, trimmed the trees, picked some produce and mowed the lawn.  After the work was done they went inside and got cleaned up.  It was almost 5 o'clock so they decided it would be fun to go to their favorite restaurant for dinner.  They called their grandma and asked if she wanted to go with them.  She decided to meet them there.

The family got to the restaurant and ordered their food.  Grandma ordered some Mexican food.  When she got it she asked for some spicey cheese.  The waitress brought it out for her.  Grandma took a bit of it and said it was really good.  After only a few seconds she started to get the hiccups.  She hiccupped and hiccupped and hiccupped.  Then all of the sudden a tail popped out of the back of her pants.  It looked like a rope.  They started to laugh, even grandma. They didn't know what to do.  All they could think of was that it came from the cheese.

Dad called the waitress over and asked her if she knew what was in the cheese. She said she didn't.  They showed her the tail and she said she had never seen that happen before.  She said that the cheese was imported from India.

Since there really was nothing they could do about the tail they decided to leave the restaurant.  They walking out to the car and grandma had to hold her tail so that it wouldn't drag on the ground.  The kids were asking grandma over and over again what she was going to do about her tail.  Being the positive person their grandma was she said, "Well I don't know.  I've never had a tail before.  I'm sure there are a lot of great things you can do with a tail."
