As most boys do, my dad loved spending time outside as a child. Sense his parents owned Cooper’s Nursery, which was behind their house, he enjoyed helping them out. One story he always gets a good laugh about is when he “ran away from home”. He says all he took was a box of kleenexes, and came back before dark. He attended Joseph Keels Elementary, Dent Middle School and Spring Valley High School.…

I was born on September 14, 1999 in Providence, Rhode Island. A few minutes later, my identical twin sister, Jasmine, was born. My parents married shortly after the pregnancy was discovered, and lived in the rough ghetto of Providence with twin babies for about a year. My mother decided to join the Army to escape the environment we were in and to hopefully give us a better life, as neither of my parents had gone to college or had steady jobs. My father had a background in New York City and understood very well that a good education and environment was important to success and avoiding a life of crime.…

Back in elementary school, my parents both worked full time and my relatives had better things to do than watch me, so what did i do after school? I went to daycare, of course. There was a lovely daycare program built into the back of my school, and every day at 3pm, i’d waddle over there and play for 3 hours. The daycare had everything my seven year old little heart could desire: legos, a computer with learning games, a big doll house, and even a little mouse named Coco. Coco was a itty-bitty little dwarf hamster who liked to be free and live his little hamster life without care, but his cage confined him to a life of imprisonment at a daycare.…

I was taken to the hospital where both of my parents worked, and didn’t find out about the news until I arrived.…
