Laura and Me



May 19, 2008




The fresh, mountain air. The cool breeze hitting my cheek as I swung back and forth. I went home today with Laura. She has soft and gentle blue eyes. She also has freckles that run across her face. She has two brothers. Allan is twenty years old, and is twice Laura's age. The other one is named Josh. He is twenty-five years old, and the oldest. He is a quarter of a century old! Laura's mom is very short and is a health assistant at a school. Her dad has two of the dirtiest jobs in the world! He and Josh are volunteer fire fighters. And Laura's brothers help her dad in logging. Laura has a sister that is in college, studying to be a nurse. She has a lot of homework. I've been thinking that the more homework the better! I've heard that she is kind of bossy. She is twenty-three years old.

After school, Laura took me to a softball game. Her team won, 8 to 1! After that we all went home and Laura did her homework. Then she told me that tomorrow another kid would have me. I started to cry. Then Laura wiped away my tears and said that it would be all right. To cheer me up, we grabbed some hot chocolate and watched tv. I think I'll miss Laura the most!
