Twice a day I would go get some water for my Ma to divide up for the family, once in the morning to start off the day and the second time for a refill to finish the day. Some days when I would feel tired or sick or just not up to it and I would wish I would just have to get it once, or maybe not even at all. But today is different. Today is Sunday, and on Sunday we go to Church and then into town. Sunday is also the day I only have to get water once. The bucket may be a bit bigger but it's still one less trip for me. In town, I like to go into stores and look at the little things they have, like little pouches and little necklaces. Ma will usually get something for me as a gift and because she wants to. When we get home we have a rest not 'Okay, it's time for nap' but 'You may go play outside now' so my brother and I will usually go outside and play for a while.
