"Alright, class, let's take out our homework!" Mrs. Bowman told the room full of second graders. Leah Black pulled her paper out of her backpack quickly, making sure not to wrinkle it. She was very proud of what she had written. After struggling on similar assignments in previous years, she knew exactly what she wanted to write about this time.
When Leah had looked up at the board again, she saw that Mrs. Bowman had written the name of everyone in the class up on the board, and above those names were the words "What I want to be when I grow up".
The young teacher smiled as she saw a paper sitting on every desk in the room, a rare site fo
"What happened to your arm?" Rebecca asked her ten year old cousin, pointing to his bruised and battered-looking arm.
Eli paused for a second, thinking of what to say. "I I don't know," he lied, hoping Rebecca would just ignore it. Unfortunately, she wasn't buying a thing he said.
"You always say you don't know, Eli. I'm not going to let it slip by this time," Her eyes filled with concern, as she saw Eli's face fall suddenly. "What's going on?"
He shook his head, wondering how he was going to explain this to the one person he trusted the most. "Alright, I'll tell you," he began slowly, "But we have to go somewhere private," he ex
My father and I went to the park one day. As he headed over to a nearby bench, I ran over to the playground, running as fast as my little 6 year old feet could carry me. My destination was unknown at the moment, but in a few short seconds I would have a plan of where I would go in order; the jungle gym, the monkey bars, the slide, the giant tire swing, the merry go round.
I skidded to a stop to see a girl sitting by herself on the swingset. She appeared to be a little older than me, by about two years to be exact. Her hair, which was as black as my own, made its way down her back in waves, and she wore a pretty green dress. Her eyes were a
There was something unusual about Eli Black. He seemed like your typical sixteen year old; a little rebellious and angst-ridden, but very caring, kind, and protective. He never spoke in anger unless provoked, and he seemed fairly upbeat most of the time. He even dressed like a typical teenage boy.
Yet every time he went into town, he often got stares and double takes from almost everyone who walked by. Others even questioned if this was a natural part of him. It was nothing he could stop, or prevent from happening. In fact, it was inevitable to happen on a day to day basis. He, in fact, found it slightly amusing to see people's reactions.

"Daddy, Daddy, look!"
The five year old tugged her dad towards a box, where several pitiful mewls were coming from. Cassie bounced over to it, grinning in excitement when she saw that there were five kittens in there. Darren immediately began to shake his head no, already anticipating his little girl's question.
"Daddy, can we take 'em home? Pleeease, Daddy? Please?" She looked up at him with wide, sad eyes, biting her lip slightly. "We can't just leave 'em, Daddy! They could, they could get sick! They could die! Oh, we just hafta take 'em home, Daddy! Pleeease? With sugar on top??"
Her father continued to shake his head no; they just didn

"What? What, does it look bad? I look horrible." The older woman twirled in her white dress, watching the skirt flare slightly about her feet before settling back down. Tori pressed a hand to her mouth, blinking back tears. "Tor? You alright?"
A weak nod, and Carys frowned, going over to her little sister and hugging her tightly. Her entourage for the bridal appointment had included Beki, Emma, Tori, Min, and a few others who Tori didn't know very well. At the moment, Tori was helping Carys into another wedding dress to try on.
"Tor, what's wrong? If it's the dress, we can take it off, put on a different one." Inside

"Daddy, Daddy, look, it's a big slide!" Cassie tugged on her father's hand, dragging him through the carnival. She pulled him over to the stairs of the Super Slide, then stared at him with wide eyes. "Can we ride it, Daddy, pleeease?"
"Sure thing, princess." Darren picked up his daughter and set her on his shoulders, carrying her up the stairs. Within a few minutes, they were at the top, Darren seated on a burlap sack behind Cassie.
They were given a push, and down the slide they zoomed, Cassie squealing with delight. As soon as they reached the bottom, there were demands for 'again, again, Daddy!'
As they raced down again, Cassie spotted

"Mama, will you tell me a story?" Cassie tucked her daughter in, lips pursed in thought. It was already passed Lily's bedtime, but she knew what it was like to not be able to sleep without a story. "Pleeeeease?"
"Well I suppose." Lily's face lit up, and she snuggled down under the blankets, looking up at her mother expectantly. Even at nine years old, Lily couldn't sleep without a bedtime story, something she must have gotten from Cassie. "Once upon a time, there was a little girl about your age. And all she wanted, more than anything in the world, was snow on her birthday. So on her tenth birthday, she decided that that birthday would

Lexie's eyes were peeled as she stared at the street, looking for the familiar blue Mercedes. Her little brother stood at the wide open door, waiting for her signal that Dad was coming. The dark brown irises scanned everywhere, flitting back and forth as she waited waited There!
"Wolf-Man's been spotted, I repeat, Wolf-Man's been spotted!" she said urgently into her walkie-talkie, giving Sam the hand signal they'd agreed upon. The eight year old ran back into the house, leaving the door open for Lexie and Dad.
Inside, the kids scrambled to hide, turning off all the lights and shutting the curtains, Cassie ducking into a cupboard

"Birthday, birthday, birthday!" Cassie sang, skipping into her parents' bedroom. Darren and Leah slept soundly, curled about each other, but the now-five-year-old was ready to change that. The little girl ran, then jumped onto their bed, giggling wildly. "Wake up, wake up, it's time to wake up!"
"Five more minutes," her mommy groaned, covering her head with a pillow. Darren sat up, rubbing his eyes tiredly before looking at the clock. 3:05 glared at him in red numbers, and he shook his head, grabbing Cassie under her arms and pulling her close to him.
"How about the birthday girl comes and sleeps with Mommy and Daddy, huh? Then we'll make y
"Here, Cassie honey, we got you this." Leah rocked the five month old gently, holding her with one arm and reaching into her bag for the stuffed bunny with the floppy ears. "I'll let you name it when you're big enough."
The baby latched onto the bunny that was as big as she was, holding onto it tightly. It was soft, and warm, and cuddly, and the baby hugged it tightly. It was now her most favoritest thing in the entire world.
Her mother's brown eyes smiled down at her, and Cassie gurgled, babbling about happily. She had a warm thing pressed against her from all sides, and she found herself getting sleepy. Cassie's eyes slowly closed as her

"Grandpa, tell me a story!"
Lily crawled up into her grandfather's lap, looking up at him with her wide yellow-green eyes. Darren chuckled, holding the four year old close to him as they rocked in the old rocking chair in the living room. He had had it brought over from Mason after after, and so it was here for the grandchildren.
"A story about what, Lils?" The small girl pondered that, her brows furrowing together in thought for a moment. She wanted a fairy tale kind of story, like how Mommy and Daddy told her! "Hm?"
Darren bounced her on his knee, causing high pitched giggles to escape from Lily. He felt a small smile form on his f
