Personal Narrative: Grandpa Levi And Grandma

Improved Essays
Grandpa Levi and Grandma Emma had moved all the way to Georgia to take over an existing Peach Orchard. We moved to the Evan’s house to take care of it for a year in case they changed their mind and wanted to come back. My grandma always kept her belongings clean and had beautiful home furnishings I loved. It was an exceptional home. It was a ranch style home with a circle driveway out front. The garage was sideways so it made our house appear larger than it was. From the front door walking in was a hallway and if you turned to the right after the coat closet, my bathroom was to the right and my bedroom was straight at the end of the hallway. If one didn’t turn at the entry hallway and just went straight, it would open into a large family room. …show more content…
The school was right behind my house so I was able to skip to and from it. It was so fun for me to be with other children my age. I loved swinging on the playground and going as high as I could. It was more of a social day for me. I shall be honest though, I wish someone had seen signs back then in my behavior. I mean, teachers had to have, but didn’t quite know what to do with it. Why? At school, we would have nap time. I even feel embarrassed to write this, but I kept getting my blanket and foam piece moved because I would kiss the boys. We are not talking a simple kiss. I mean I would full on give them long drawn out kisses while cuddling up next to them. Definitely NOT behavior a five-year-old girl should be exhibiting repeatedly. I also tried to kiss boys on the playground. Particularly two. They were twins. Joseph and Joshua. One always wore blue and one wore Red. Well, I kept getting in trouble from the teacher and I even remember coming home and my mom getting annoyed with me. My dad acted like he was proud of me and my mom just glared at him. I didn’t know if it was good or bad. I was confused. I have no idea where I learned that behavior and I hope I never have to know how I did. The thought repulses me to my being. I know my Uncles made me kiss them on the lips, but I don’t have a memory of passionate kissing with them, thank the …show more content…
I was in the back facing out towards the front door when my dad started yelling for my mother to get outside, before she could get out to the car the horn started honking and my father got irate and threw open his door, went inside and came back out the front door and with Melissa in her infant seat. He was so mad and as he turned to slam the screen door in my mother’s Melissa came flying out. She landed on the concrete patio outside the door. My mother screamed and cried as any mother would. She was heartbroken that my father chose to express his impatience in such a way to hurt their petite newborn. Melissa was injured and she was in a body cast from her chest down for a long time. I became so frightened of my
