I remember when mommy and daddy took us to get ice cream cones and let us eat them in the backseat of the car. I was the oldest and could handle the cone a lot better than Shonie or Reta. While I ate my cone from the bottom up to keep being a mess all over me, my sisters both ate theirs from the top and had a mess dripping all down their arms. I was a bit scared because daddy was driving but continuously looking in the back seat fussing at Shonie and Reta to eat like me saying why can't yall eat your ice cream like Davita when they were really too young to know how without being shown. In that car we also had fun with daddy. He would pretend to drive with his eyes closed and we were amazed. Mommy would be yelling June open your eyes when in actuality his eyes were'nt really closed. Daddy would laugh at mommy while still making us amazed that our daddy could drive without seeing. Fond Memories

I was about 7 years old. We lived on lexington St. In Newark. Daddy always had so much money so I'm thinking he won't know if I take some. This particular day I was standing in the corner and both mommy and daddy went to sleep and left me standing there. I could hear daddy snoring. I could see his money on the dresser so I sneak in the room to get a couple dollar bills, bad part was all he had was loose change and big bills I'm scared to take a big bill but I wasn't taking change. As long as he's snoring I'm ok. I'm looking at the money trying to figure out what to do. I take a whole 20 dollar bill. I can treat all my friends. The next morning I go to the store before school and all the kids in the store with me got a treat. I go to class with a bunch of candy. My teacher takes it and ask me questions. I'm so silly to let her know I had the money and treated me and my friends. Now why I trust my teacher because little did I know she called my parents who had been arguing about the money because daddy thought mommy stole it. My parents were too smart they waited till the next morning, let me go all the way outside just to call me right back upstairs and tell me to strip. I had the money tucked away in my shoes and thought they would never find it. Daddy makes me take off my shoes so I takes them off very slowly. I'm standing now shaking like a leaf. Scared to death cause daddy picks my shoe up and pours the money out. He tore my butt up!!!!
