Rockefeller family

With my heart about to beat out of my chest, I make my way down the long narrow hallway that takes me to the courtroom where my family is waiting . I remember seeing all of the yellow caution wet signs scattered down the hall, letting people know that they had just finished mopping the smooth white floors. As I stand in front of the tall wooden doors that separate me from the court room, I cant help but wonder what all could go wrong. Does my step dad really want to adopt me? Will the judge…

My mother found out she was pregnant at the doctor’s office during a regular check up. The nurse asked when her last menstrual period was and she was a week or two late so they did a pregnancy test and it came back positive. She was very surprised when she got the results back. My parents were not trying to get pregnant but also were not preventing pregnancy. My mother stated, “Now that I look back, I do not know why I was so shocked. It is not like we were using any methods of prevention”. Her…

was stubborn. I began to lie and make excuses, but that didn’t get me very far. Lying was one thing that was just in my nature. I didn’t really have someone around who cared about how I was doing in school, especially someone who wasn’t my immediate family. I didn’t want to risk like looking like a fool if I did something stupid and got caught I had no idea what was going on. When my grades came in, my heart sank to my stomach; there was no way out of this one. Trying to come up with an excuse…

My Dad My Dad has always been my inspiration ever since I was little. Some people can say the same thing, but some can say their father wasn’t like my dad. Even my dad couldn’t say that his father was his inspiration. His dad left him just when he was an eight year old boy, and would come back when he turned sixteen. Only to leave yet again and not speak to my dad until he was forty. Sitting outside on the steps as my dad and I watch our dogs run around after each other. The glow from the sun…

It seems as if they both love to have her sympathy and attention for every little bump in the road more than thinking of how all of this bad news affects her. Since Kyle and I have been married over 20 years, he is already very aware of all of my family members and their three (desired, perceived, and presenting) selves! I finished the end of our conversation by telling him that I spent 30 minutes on the phone with my mom reminding her that my brother is 44 and my sister is 35. My mom can’t do…

In “The Awakening” by Kate Chopin, the theme of motherhood and the idea of the “mother-woman,” are both very prominent. Two of the novel’s main characters are mothers, although their views on motherhood are not alike at all. Throughout the novel, Adele and Edna are compared to show how Adele surpasses the societal ideals of what a mother and wife should be, and how Edna defies those standards and refuses to let motherhood consume her life. One of the ways that this is achieved is by the use…

was how to be a gentleman. I have large extended families, my dad 's is not quite as large as my mom 's but there are bigger age gaps. My mom 's family is huge, it goes back to my grandfather and his seven siblings and all but one of them had 2-4 kids respectively. In the current generation of the family (mine) there are 34 cousins ranging from 2 to 30 years old. Even though I like to think my families see each other more than the average family. I didn 't see the exact semantics behind…

As a child, I was a complete and total brat: spoiled, bossy, emotional, you name it, and it was probably an adjective that could be used to describe me. I always had to be the center of attention at every event or family gathering; however, no one seemed to mind because I was pretty stinking cute as well. I was the favorite niece, grandchild, cousin, and everything in-between. I may be pretty vain in admitting this, but what else would you expect from an only child? Yep, that’s right. I was an…

THE END I am the only one left. Should I cross the hard gray smooth never ending rock, which took the life of my brother and sister? There has to be a way to get to the food source that father talked about. Brother almost made it before the thing with the four rolling objects took him. With Sister it was quick. She just bounced and that was that. The end. It all started a month ago, when Father was getting ready to take us to the place that I am now. Mother and Father, (I miss…
