Chapter One
Weeds and More Weeds
It was a hot day late in June, and I wasn’t planning on going outside that afternoon. But then I heard Dad talking to Mom in the kitchen.
“The weeds are getting pretty thick,” he said. “Maybe the kids could do some work in the garden this afternoon.”
My older sister Hannah, who had just turned eleven, was standing there in the living room too. We looked at each other. Neither of us likes weeding, so we quietly slipped out the front door.
As we snuck around the side of the house opposite the garden, we ran into my little brother, Noah. He looked all excited.
“Caleb! Hannah! I have an idea!” he said.
Noah is only six, so I wasn’t expecting any really great idea from him. But anything was better than weeding.
“Okay, Noah,” I said. “Let’s hear it.”
“I have an idea for how we can go there again!”
“Go where?” said Hannah. “Oh, never mind. I get it.”
I got it, too. Noah was saying he had an idea for how we could go back in time. It might sound unbelievable, but it had happened twice before. Noah and Hannah and I went back to the time of Jesus and had great adventures! For weeks, we had been trying to figure out how to go there again.
The first time we had been riding our bikes down a hill. The second time we had jumped off a tree branch together. We had tried riding our bikes everywhere, and jumping off everything. (Except the roof. Dad wouldn’t let us try that.) Nothing had worked. So I was willing to try anything, even one of Noah’s ideas.
Hannah was, too.
“Okay, what’s your idea?” she asked.
“I think we should try rolling down the hill together!” said Noah.
Hannah looked at the hill in our front yard. It’s barely a hill, really, and not very steep.
“Well,” she said, “I’m game.”
“I guess it can’t hurt to try,” I said.
We lay down in a row and started rolling down the hill. Noah immediately banged into Hannah.
“Ow!” Hannah yelled. “Your foot!”
“Sorry!” said Noah.
It wasn’t steep enough for us to really get going, though. We had to keep pushing off to keep rolling. I started laughing at how ridiculous we were. Soon all three of us were laughing. At the bottom of the hill, we sat up. Hannah’s ponytail was lopsided. Noah’s sandcolored hair had pieces of grass in it. I guess mine looked the same.
“Oh!” said Noah, looking disappointed. “We’re still wearing our clothes!”
