      When I woke up it was the first day of school. I had been sleeping since yesterday evening, and Julie was crying of hunger. I was tired not because I haven't had enough sleep, but because I had too much sleep. I felt like a corpse that have been decaying for years. Now having having to wake up to take care of Julie and get ready for the first day of the new school, I started crawling like a turtle and finally convincing myself to get up. I had been sleeping for about 20 hours and Julie had been crying for 2 hours out of hunger. She was grumpy and the face was smeared with her tears. This has been a while since I slept for a long while. Julie, in her grumpy face stared at me, and when I said Julie, is something wrong?" She screamed " mommy!" in the most loudest voice.  This was the first time I was actually happy that she didn't know how to speak properly. And as I got myself together to fix breakfast and pack lunch, I looked around the  house and it was all messed up. Thats when I realized that I was needed. I have never thought that  I would ever be needed. The thought of it made me so happy and then I was lost in the train of thoughts.
