I rolled down the steps down the concrete and into the street. My Daddy picked me up. He tried to get me to stand up but I couldn’t so he carried me like a princess. He put me in the car and took me home. Then the next morning he took me to the doctor and they said I sprung my ankle so I didn’t go to school. Instead I stayed with my Daddy for about a week. Well, actually school wasn’t in so it was a vacation. But I was still taken care of.

Barney Slippers by Liberty
When I was two and I loved Barney, me and my mom went to Wal-Mart. I saw Barney slippers. I really wanted those Barney slippers. I yelled, screamed and cried. My mom said, “What is it?”
I grabbed the Barney slippers and gave them to my mom. She said, “No. Too much money, Liberty.”
I started to yell and scream and cry again when an old man came over and said, “Oh look at that baby girl with that curly hair and afro. Why is she crying? She wants those Barney slippers? Oh. Does she want a sucker?”
I don’t know why he unwrapped the sucker and gave it to me but I threw it at his nose and he said, “Well, I guess she doesn’t want that!”
