Today we had to take our suitcases with us to the homeless shelter.
Mom and dad said this will only be until dad gets a new job. Dad lost his job at the factory because the business was not doing so well.
I see a lot of boarded up buildings as I walk through the city with mom and dad at my side.
It is just us three between two bunks. Mom and dad don’t let me wonder around because we do not know any of these people.
But Margret is nice to me. She lets me have an extra cookie or roll with dinner. Margret tells me I need to eat good to get strong and big.
Mom and dad said next week I will have to start school.
School was two bus trips and a walk down 1st street. While I was in school my parents were downtown looking for jobs.
One day in class
