A Special Person to Me

I loved Aaron because he was fun. He was my babysitter and he played guns with me and my brother. He popped out from behind our house and scared us. We liked it. I love Aaron but he passed away. I miss him.

Note:
This was written by Dayton in response to a writing prompt given by his first-grade teacher to "write about an important person in your life." Each child in the classroom wrote to this prompt and many wrote about a parent, a grandparent, a sibling or their best friend. Dayton chose to write about Aaron.
