Tales from childhood: My diagnosis.

"You've lost a lot of weight!" my colleague said me.

Indeed, I have become very, very thin lately. Although I eat as usual. Also, I often fell chills, even though it's warm outside.

Before, I thought it was just a cold. Now I decided to see a doctor.

"I came to get tested for a serious illness. I suspect I gave this." I told the hospital.

A few days later, I went to get the test results.

Oh, no! The results are positive! I have a fatal disease! I need to tell Timothy and my boss about this!

I, the lady in red, decided to tell you in more detail how everything really is. What should I do now?!

Tales from childhood: My mother.

Hi, dear readers! It's me, Timothy. I want to tell you another story from my life.

Many years ago, I had a mother. I lived with her then. I still love my mom.

I remember that back then we had white flowers and lots of toys in our house. I liked guns.

"Today we will go to the river and to the park," my mom said.

I loved these kinds of trips. I just remember it being wonderful.

Then... disaster happened!

To be continued.

Tales from childhood: Generosity.

"Mom, I want to give my old things to my friend." my daughter said.

"Good idea!" I said with a smile.

My daughter often gives away clothes and toys to those in need. This is right. There are people who need all this.

"Mrs. Anne, your daughter is a very, very generous and kind woman," her friend said.

Then my grandson was given a gift, too.
