A Year Old
“Sammy, blow the candles!” Christine said with delight.
Sammy claps her hands with joy and walks with ginger steps towards the table. She attempts to puff in the air as she pouts and her chest expands. Tired, she pauses with her lips contracted and then huffs the breath with all her might.
“Oh, Oh!” All shouted in the background as something blew across Sammy and onto the cake.

A New Bride
"Dad, I can't take it anymore!" the new bride lamented over the telephone.
"Give it some time. Don't make a hasty decision."
"But, Dad his family's so different than how I've been brought up! They have weird tastes, and most of the time they live with us." she sobbed.
"Look at the positive side; you have a loving husband. Give it some time; otherwise, we're always there for you!"

A Choice
“Come on! you can do it, Nate!” Mom urged her teen as he sat all heartbroken with a droopy head.
“Beggars can’t be choosers. I shall take what’s offered,” he shouted back at her.
There was silence.
With moist eyes, but a stern voice she said, “That’s untrue! Cause even beggars get an opportunity
to choose. But they choose to take the easy route!” The son looked at her with a frown as

Timeouts!
“I don’t want to go to school tomorrow!” Nate announced loud and clear when he entered his home and sat down with a sulk.

A Mouse in the House
"Oh God! We have a mouse in the house!" I shrieked as I announced to my family. My son sitting on the couch was quick to pull his legs and cross them over. "Where! Where!" he inquired in an equally high-pitched scream.
"It's in the bedroom!"
I was now waiting restlessly for my husband to take some action. Instead, he continued to work on his laptop unperturbed of what I just announced!
