we were too busy playing to do that. After all, not every day is the first
day of summer vacation.
We had big plans this year. My brother Mike wanted to build a tree
house. Johnny wanted to build a go-cart. But I wanted to build a
skateboard ramp. Mike said it was a silly idea. He always thinks hes
right because he is the oldest, and Johnny goes along with him because
hes the baby. They always tell me, Paulina, go inside with Mom and
play with your dolls and makeup! They are so mean!
