the point where she gets regular sleep and enjoys trying new foods. Her health and motor development needed steady work but now has progressed. All of her behaviors are based off my choices as a parent and by comparing her to the average child I can see if she meets the typical patterns of development through the first eighteen months.

As her senses woke up in the pitch black house the sound got more and more familiar. Was It mom? She put on her morning robe and ran down the stairs. It was raining and on top of that, thunder. When she was close to the kitchen she heard another shout coming from the master bedroom upstairs. It was her mom’s own voice coming from the bedroom. Honey, did you hear that? When…

Chapter One: Yesterday and Today “Another day just like yesterday.” I mumbled as stuck my toothbrush in between my dry jaws. As I brushed my teeth, the doorbell rang. Who could it be this early in the morning? No way could there be a surprise visit from my girlfriend or anybody. I was a single man working in a big city where my family had died. With a step to the side and a turn, I reached the door of my tiny one-room apartment. Peeping through the eyehole, I saw two man in black suit with…

Pop! Crack pop! Ack-ack-ack-ack-ack! The gunfire sends Salva's teacher into a frenzy in which he commands them to run into the bush. Little does Salva know, this action will change his life forever.

My Trip to Detroit Mountain: It all started about 1 year ago, when the 8th grade went on the bus to get to Detroit Mountain. It was 6 A.M., and I was exhausted. Reason being, I had to wake up at 5 A.M. to get myself through my morning routine and still get there on time. The ride there took an hour and a half (But if felt like 3 hours). Then the real bullcrap starts to take place. After I got there I spent an hour getting past the bunny hill so I could be allowed to go on the other hills. I…

“Get some sleep. Think about what your opponent will do. Be responsible. You are playing for your partner not just yourself. Eat a good breakfast and be ready to play.” These are the final words from my tennis coach before the biggest tennis matches of my life… and they went through one ear and out the other of most of the team.
