Old Enough
Pearl swung around the second my feet touched the kitchen tile and began the introductions to our new somebody hired for help. - "Well 'morning sleepy head, I got someone who wants to meet you!"- Yeah right, she's dying to meet me, the one who will give her some quick news, I am in need of no mindin' and I don't plan on listening to a dang word you say!-

Old Enough
As soon as Pearl's taxi pulled up and her sensible black shoes touched the sidewalk I was ready to head out the back door to meet my best friend Clara, that is until I hear an unfamiliar voice in the front hallway. Curiosity is my worst enemy and by now I should have learned something, but as Clara says, "UH-Parent-LEE not". I peek around the doorway and see Pearl has another woman with her: Is this the mean lady who takes kids from unfit homes? It's gotta be. The word is on the street for sure by now that we are mixing with coloured's, are heathens and I have no rightful Momma. Then my mind jumps into action. Paw-Paw! I best wake him as he is likely to be snoring away in his boxers or worse, naked!

The Inclusive Farm
On a sunny farm, where flowers swayed in the breeze and animals played together, Luna the llama, Maisy the mouse, and Bruno the bunny were the best of friends. They loved to explore the rolling hills, play hide-and-seek in the tall grass, and have all sorts of exciting adventures. One day, as they were playing near the big oak tree, they heard a rustling in the bushes. "What's that?" asked Maisy, her bright green eyes twinkling with curiosity.

How can one night change a kid like me, or anyone for that matter? I don't know the answers but I do know I grew up a whole lot after sleeping over in what felt like another world entirely different than my own. Part of me wants to not think so much, to just be a kid who plays checkers, pretends to be a spy or astronaut and can forget all about the troubles this dumb ole world has. Something tells me those kind of days are soon over.
