My daughter Raven had a school project called creative writing. She decided to write a short story about her life. We didn't even know she was doing this until she came home with it the other day. It's one of the heaviest stories I've ever read and it was written by a SEVEN YEAR OLD...

MY LIFE
by Raven Hall

One time I was living in Murrieta. One
morning my Dad was in a terrible car accident on his way to work. My Mom
woke me up very early that morning. My Mom dropped me off at my aunt's
house in Riverside. My mom thought she would pick my Dad up from the
hospital but he was too hurt to get picked up. He wasn't even awake, so
my aunt took me and my sister Willow to my mom in Palm Springs. We
stayed in a place called the Hanson House that was next to the hospital.
I had to live there for two whole months. It was hot and a small room
with two beds and no TV. I cried there because my Dad was in the
hospital. One day my Mom took me to see my Dad for the first time.
When I saw him he was in bed with tubes in his mouth and a tube in his nose,
he also had tubes in his arms and a halo to keep his neck still. He
couldn't talk yet or move but he could blink his eyes and I could tell he was
happy to see me. My Mom said not to be scared but I wasn't because I
could see he was still my Daddy. That night my Mom had my new baby
sister, her name is Lily and she is very cute. Now my Mom and Dad were
both in the hospital. It was hard to have both my parents in the
hospital because I'm used to having my parents taking care of me. My
aunties and Grandma took care of me and Willow while my parents were in the
hospital. One day my Dad came home from the hospital. He was in
the hospital for four months so I was very happy to have my Daddy home
again. He told us he couldn't move yet so he couldn't give us big hugs
like he did before so he would have to give us a bunch more kisses
instead. So everyday we still get a lot of kisses from Dad. One
night a nice boy named Hal and his Dad came to our house to visit us.
They told us about a place called Project Walk. Project Walk helps
people get better who are in a wheelchair like my Dad and Hal. Hal and
his Dad said they have a foundation that could help my Dad go to Project
Walk. It's called Be Perfect Foundation. My Dad goes to Project
Walk now and is getting better and stronger. He can almost wheel himself
around now and almost squeezes me tight when he hugs us like he used to.
My Mom takes care of us all now until my Daddy can again and our family is all
together again, so now I am happy .

The
End
