I once heard a quote from Steve Maraboli,”Let today be the day you love yourself enough to no longer just a dream of a better life;let it be the day you act upon it” I love that quote because I live by it and every day I try to let today be that day. I was born on October 20th,2005 at 5:10 pm. I was the first and the last child born of parents: Crystal and Bob Read. My middle name is from my Memaw Betty Jane, she passed away in 1974. They got my name from the bible,Mary Magdalene. My nickname is Maddy and that’s all people called me in Louisiana but my family calls me Madelyn. In 2006, I was 1, I took my first steps.

I live in Mountain Home, Arkansas and I go to Pinkston Middle School.

The other thing I miss about my hometown is Skatetown because I went there all the time with Tristi and we hung out with our other friends. I have matured a lot over the past summer and I am very glad that I already made friends at Pinkston Middle School. I know that Mountain Home will never replace my home town of West Monroe and that no friend will ever replace Tristi, but I am happy here, and think it is going to be a great school
