Writing exercise

Finally, Charlotte approved Terrific as a new word to write it on her web. Terrific, was a word that made Wilbur interesting for everybody in the farm. That night when every animal was sleeping, she started to work, first she shipping some orb lines near to the center, then wove a new line, beginning with the letter T.
She likes weave so, if you could hear her, you would hear that she say all the time while she works. Giving herself encouragement, as if many spiders spoke a word of support. She spoke to herself, and her work was hard but she made it with more enthusiasm.
