An Acorn

My Family

On a lighter note, my family were, in my opinion, faultless. My mum, who is called Mary, was a well-educated citizen and is a member of the tree council. (These are the people who dictate what we are and are not allowed to do on the tree). Even though she is a very wealthy woman she hasn't let that corrupt her. She has a big heart and is willing to do whatever you want (to an extent) and will gladly help me in anything. In contrast my dad, Henry, is unemployed and is a bit slow to realise things, despite this he makes it up in other departments. He is filled with enthusiasm, it is relentless! Although he may not always be able to help me, he's never afraid to try. Most families have more than one child as many don't make it but mine only had one: Me. Overall they are compassionate, loving people who I am honored to have as a mother and father. Unfortunately, a few days ago, Henry passed away in his sleep. He lived a long life and in my eyes enjoyed every minute of it, he was always there to help me out of harms way. However he wasn't there to help me when I was attacked by a famished looking squirrel!
