Key To Staying Warm On A Cold Winter Day

On cold winter days like today I do five things to keep me nice and warm. Right when I get home I turn the heat up to seventy degrees. Then I change into my monkeys and banana s pajamas, with my furry socks. I then get my leopard blanket and bundle up on the couch, watching Christmas movies. While waiting for my mom to finish her homemade chicken noodle soup, I make myself a nice cup of hot chocolate with jumbo marshmallows. Finally, my mom brings me a hot bowl of soup when she is done. At this time I am warmer than the sun on a hot day. These five things make me feel at home since I am warm and comfortable.

Freedom Is The Best Privilege...

A privilege that I earned from my mother is freedom. She does not have to let me have a life, but she trusts me enough to let me leave without her supervision. I am basically allowed to do anything, because she trusts me enough to know I will make the right decisions. I go out to eat and to the movies all the time. I am able to leave anytime I want without her calling me every twenty minutes or have to check in. I am able to hang out with my friends and invite them over whenever I feel like it, but I have to tell her first. I am thankful to have earned this privilege because I know a lot of teenagers whose parents keep them on lockdown.
