I like to look at pictures of her when she waas my age and make believe we're best friends and know secret stuff we won't tell anybody else. —Cynthia (Cindi) going into 5th\ When my mom cracked her favorite plate she cried. That made me cry. Then she started to laugh. Then I laughed too. Then she put the pieces in the garbage and said, "Oh well it isn't the end of the world." —Angelina Age, 10\ My mom lets me have my cat Oliver even though she's not a cat person. But she's kind to him anyway because she knows I couldn't live with-out him. —Patricia, 9\ If I get a bad grade she doesn't make a big deal. She teaches me never to give up. She went on the rollercoaster with me when no one else would. These are some of the reasons I'm glad she had me instead of somebody else. —Donald, 10 1/2
