Saturday morning I woke up to Suzan yelling “Mommy! Mommy! There’s snow on the ground! Theres snow on the ground!” I went over to my window and saw Rascal and Suzan outside playing in the snow together. I ran downstairs and got my winter stuff on., and ran out the door to play with Rasco and Suzan. Suzan was making a snowangel, and Rasco was running around and diving on to the snow when i got out there.

“Hey Suzan you wanna build a snowman with me?” I asked Suzan.

“Yes!” Suzan said. We were outside for about half the day then Suzan had gotten cold, so we went inside and got some hot coco. As soon as Rasco got into the house he ran over to dads feet and begged to get on the couch with him. Dad let him up on the couch, and they were cuddling for about a hour and they fell asleep, mom was in the kitchen cooking lunch, suzan was in her room playing with Charles, jordain was at a friends house,and i was in my room playing on facebook.

Mom went to the store to get something for supper. A few minutes later the cops came to my house, my dad answer the door and the cops had told him that my mom has been in a car crash and she didn’t make it. They also said she was on her way to the store she was driving past a tractor trailer truck and the truck swerved into her lane and hit her head on. When the cops had left my dad dropped to the ground in tears.

“Dad whats wrong dad!” I came running out of my room screaming.

“Your mom…” He says while he is in tears

“What about my mom?”

“she shes dead.” As soon as he told me I bursted into tears, i went into Suzan’s room with Suzan and Charles.

“What’s wrong sissy?” Suzan asked me. I was to upset to answer her back at that moment. After a while dad came into the room and took Suzan and set her on his lap and had told her what happen. She started to cry and saying i want mommy.

When jordain came home she saw everyone crying and she asked dad what was going on.

“Your mom, your mom’s dead” dad said in tears

“what how” jordain said with tears running down her face.

“A tractor trailer had hit her head on while she was on her way to the store to get our supper.” Jordain dropped to the ground and bursted into tears. The next day none of us went to school, and dad didn’t go to work, we were all too depressed to do anything, we didn’t even cook supper are hardly eat all we did was cry and cry and cry. It was the worst time of my life.

A few days later, we went to her funeral. Dad hardly talk ever seens mom had passed. When we got there, my grandma and grandpa were into tears, we walked up to them and they wanted to know the whole story on how this happened to her. They were taking this really hard, but who isn’t taking it hard. There was a lot of people at the funeral, people from her work, people from the stores we went to all the time, and there was olivia's family there. As soon as Olivia saw me she ran over to me and gave me a huge hug.

“I am so sorry about your mom kait.” She says while she is crying. I hugged her even tighter and cried on her shoulder. I was so happy that she was my best friend. Life was different without my mom around.
