Yearning For Love Part 1

"Hailey, the baby is crying. Shut him up! I have a headache. I told you not to ever let him cry!" "What?" I said, groggily as my mother had just woke me up from a majorly needed nap. I was 3 years old at this moment in time. "What did you say, mommy?" My mother came out of her room, a rare occasion. "Are you stupid or something?! I SAID, YOUR BRO-THER IS CRY-ING SHUT HIM UUUUUP!" She said, really slowly, over enunciating, like I was stupid. Gosh I must be stupid. I thought. "Oh I'm sorry! I'm just so stupid. I'll go get Jimmy and you go back to bed, mommy." "You better get Jimmy or you're gonna get it!"

I ran to Jimmy's room and took him from his crib. I set him in his high chair and got a bottle for him. I gave him the bottle and began pondering if I really was stupid. "Mo ,mo!!" Jimmy said "One more, that's all, Jimmy." I fixed another bottle and concluded that I must be stupid. After all… mommy is growned up and she says I'm stupid so I guess I must be stupid. Jimmy finished another bottle and was getting sleepy. I put him in his crib and went into the living room to watch TV I made sure the volume was down low. Wouldn't want to make mommy angry, I thought.

I sat down and watch TV. After 3 hours I knew that Jimmy was asleep for the night. I got into bed after washing the dishes I used for my dinner.
