You know when people say for as long as they can remember, or as far back as they remember? Have you actually thought back to the past? Like really thought back? I have and well, I don’t remember when i was 1 – 6. I don’t think I even remember a lot of year 8. I mean i have seen pictures, and said what was this from? My father would tell me ” this was your first easter,” or “This is your fifth birthday.” The usual events parents take pictures at. And, You know the scrap books mommies are supposed to keep? She, as in mine, never made one. I have always wondered how much hair she kept, or my first tooth, or my first pair of shoes. Whats this all mean? We will start as far as I can remeber, six years old. And, my little brother Travis is born.

So, super excited someone to play with, finally then seven years old I am playing with travis while he is in a swing, daddy comes home. We live in Otsego in a two story white house on a corner. My best friend, Mimi lived next store. Which was cool becuase on Fridays my mom would leave with her friends and I would be with Mimi at her house. Leaving Travis and dad home alone. I never understood why dad would send me there anytime mom went out. I just thought he just wanted me happy, I really did not like staying at home. I thought it was boring. This Firday I am with Mimi, her borther Joey, and a babysitter. It’s late and Mimi and I are so bored Joey, Ten years old, Blonde, Skinny as a twig, Died his face green with food coloring. He ran into our room and scared us. We ran down the stairs, Mimi’s room was the entire upstiars which We ran to the back luandry room, hid oafter we opened the back door. To make Joey believe that we ran out side. Joe ran out the door, Mimi closed it and i locked it. Joey ran back to the door, wiggled the handle, and realized it was locked and got mad. We laughed, his green face looked like fiber optic light, you know the ones that change colors? This one green to red. We stopped laughing when his fist went through the glass window. Mimi’s jaw dropped and I screamed. Que the babysitter, she too screamed not knowing what to do. She ran in circles, think about it she was scared, being in a laundry basket i grabbed the artical that i had in my hand and slowly approached Joe. He did not seem to notice the glass and blood, Just stood there and was breathing heavily! This seven year old grabbed the phone and called daddy. He showed in a flash, first in hand, he looked at the sitter who was in tears and asked for the emergancy numbers. I gave him the phone, He called Tara, Mimi’s mom and exclaimed she was to meet him at the ER A.S.A.P.! He would explain later and off they went. I joined the sitter in the living room. Mimi was scared, she thought Joe was going to kill her when he came too. So her, the sitter, Travis, and I waited. She stayed with me that Friday even though that was not the pnly bad thing that had happened that night.
