Grace's first summer without her mother and father was the hardest summer of her entire life, to make it worse, Grace and Samuel were born and raised in the city. When her grandmother gardens in the backyard and asks Grace to help, she wants to say " No! You don't know what I just went through, and I'm not that type of girl and you know that!!!" But she never had the courage to say that, and her grandmother did know how she felt, she lost her daughter, Grace's mother. So Grace just went to help anyways. Even though each time she touched the dirt and bugs, she felt as if she could puke. But she felt to sorry to refuse, her grandpa was to old and fragile to leave the house, and Samuel only came out when his iPad or Nintendo DS died, otherwise he was too busy to come out and even play. Grace at least tried to help as much as she could, washing dishes, helping her grandma cook dinner, or even cooking dinner by herself, she helps clean the house, and while her grandmother takes the vegetables she grew to the market Grace babysits Samuel. Samuel sometimes says "I'm too old for this stuff, stop trying to treat me like a baby, I can take care of myself." Even though he says it in the most babyish voice he has. "I think he's just still mad about his father leaving you guys." Grace's grandmother would say. And that may be true.
