“When we’re early for school, we can get donuts from Dunkin’ Donuts unless the line is long.

She’s also a good cook and cooks better than my Dad.

The last time my Dad was cooking fish, there was steam all over the house.”

“Scream. She doesn’t scream at me, but at spiders.

Once at our house, Mom opened the cupboard and she saw a huge tarantula

and said, “Hon, come here,” but my Dad was at work, so I had to come and kill it with a shoe.”

“She cooks food good.

I really like it when she makes macaroni and cheese.

It’s homemade and it’s really good. She cooks steak pretty good, too.

Sometimes I help her clean up the kitchen.”

“Gives me a lot of hugs and kisses.

She takes me to my activities. I go to dance class on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

She’s also a really good cook. I like her spaghetti and meatballs.”

“She does the laundry really good.

We haven’t played basketball yet, but last summer we played and she beat me every time.

It made me a little mad. We usually play P-I-G.

She used to do karate, too, so she’s pretty athletic.”
