Tales from childhood: Kevin.

Hi, people! Timothy is speaking to you now. I want to tell you about a friend of my ex-wife's family. This man has known my child's mother since early childhood. His name is Kevin.

"I met Kevin long before I met you," my ex-wife often said.

Also, I remember him inviting my ex-wife and our daughter over. They visited him after our divorce-which happened because of my appearance.

I think my family is with him now. It's for the best.

Tales from childhood: Cool trip!

Good evening, dear people! What's new in your life? How did you spend your time?

It's me, Mr. H. About two months ago I wanted to go to the south with my family. There are beaches with the sea, warm sun, all the people around are happy and enjoying their vacation.

"I hope we can go to a warm city this year and relax there," I told my wife.

But then it turned out we couldn't go to the seaside this year. So my wife, son, and I decided to go to countryside. That's a fun way to relax, too. We can go into the woods, watch animals, and eat vegetables...

"We can go on vacation somewhere else." I said.

"Great idea!" my son said happily.

"Yes, I like it," my wife agreed.

Our summer vacation in the village was actually very interesting. My son and I went fishing, and my wife went to the market and bought a lot of necessary things. Also, we met new people.

Tales from childhood: Physical exercise with benefits.

Hello, dear readers! I'm Mr. H. What have you been up to? What interesting things happened?

This is how it happened for me. My wife and I washed the windows in our new apartment. Our son participated, too.

It was like a gym class. We repeated the same movements many times! Ha-ha-ha!

"Dad, I brought cleaning supplies," my son said.

"Thank you very much, son" I said with happiness.

"Oh, I'm already tired; everything will probably hurt tomorrow!" my wife said.

"No matter, we did something useful and trained our bodies." I encouraged her.

The next day we really felt the result of the "training", but all the windows in the new apartment became cleaner, and the view of the street became more vivid.

Tales from childhood: Any weather is good.

Greetings to everyone reading this! I'm Mr. H. I'd like to tell you more about my family.

Let's start with the fact that I was born and raised in a very cold place. From an early age, I've been accustomed to the cold climate. My son loves snow and wind, too. My wife, however, comes from a warmer climate, but that doesn't bother us at all.

Our child enjoys walking outside in winter. We all like it.

"What nice weather today!" I said to my wife during the rain after hot days.

Everything is always great in my family, no matter the weather.

Tales from childhood: Whose fault is it here!?

"You don't understand anything! You don't want to do anything!" once again my mother yelled at me.

I felt very offended then. I remembered different fairy tales where there were evil stepmothers and stepsisters.

If that lady in red, the one who doesn't give her name, is talking to you. Yes, my family doesn't know my name either. It's sad. Oh...

It was when I was a little girl. I was already lying in bed and decided it was my mother's fault, not mine.

"I'm normal, and you're not!" I said silently.

Maybe the problem lies with others? What do you think?

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: How we chose a Christmas tree.

Hello to everyone who reads this story! I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! How did you spend the holidays? What do you remember most?

I'm Mr. H. and I want to tell you how we chose a Christmas tree. It was quite an adventure!

"Let's go to the market for a Christmas tree," my son said with joy.

Then we went to the market to pick out what we need. It was December 23rd, Christmas had already arrived, but we still didn't have the main decoration.

"Look what a beautiful Christmas tree!" my wife said.

"Yes, it's like a forest beauty," I said with a smile.

"Maybe we should take the bigger one," my son said.

We wandered around the market for a while longer. It was frosty and snowing outside. Everyone was dressed warmly.

By the evening we found a beautiful Christmas tree and bought it. We decorated our home and new tree.

"Very good we made it in time for the holidays," my wife said the next morning.

Tales from childhood: There are all small details!

"The driver talked to us rudely" my son told me.

"Tell me; were you able to get to the right place with your friends?" I asked my son.

"Yes, dad, we got to the cinema safety." he answered me.

"That's the main thing. What he said isn't so important. So don't pay attention to such minor details." I said with a smile.

My son looked at me and thought, then raised his eyebrows and said:

"It's probably really not something to worry about"

"That's how it should be." my wife supported us.

I tell you all this, Mr. H.

Tales from childhood: Long-awaited move.

"Dear, I found us a new apartment! We'll be moving in soon!" I told my wife with joy.

"Well, finally!" my wife said.

I'm Mr. H. Now I will live in another place with my wife and son. We've always wanted this. 

"Son, you and I will now go to the new apartment, and mom will pack things in the old one." I told him.

"Okay, dad, you and I will go." my son said. 

The new apartment was larger and more comfortable. My son and I began cleaning and preparing for the move.

First, we hug the old painting in the large room. That's probably a good place for it.

Then my son arranged the furniture in his room, and I gave advice.

"Put this chair here and move the table to the window" I said.

My wife had already packed up the old house, and we moved in by evening.

"So, how did you arrange the furniture?" my wife asked.

"Oh, that was difficult. But dad was a great guide" my son said with a smile.

Tales from childhood: My son.

Hello, people! This is Mr. H. speaking. My son likes different sport games. He has a competition very soon.

"Remember, son, the main thing isn't winning, but participating." I told my son this and patted him on the shoulder.

"Yes, dad, that's exactly it. There's no need to worry about it." he said.

On the day of the competition, I was sitting in the spectators with my wife. We came to support our son.

"Come on, you can do it!" we shouted as our son confidently ran towards the goal with the ball.

My son took an honorable second place and I'm proud him!

"Well done!" my wife said with a smile.

"Thank you Mom and dad! The result is good!" my son said gladly.

Tales from childhood: A trip to an amusement park.

Hi, dear readers! My name is H. I'm a man from another short story called "How I look at life". Do you remember this story? Even if you don't remember, it's normal.

Today my family and I will go to the big city by bus, and then we will ride the metro.

But our main goal is the amusement park. We will all ride the Ferris wheel there. My son wants to ride the carousel and jump on the trampoline. Child needs to have a good time!

"Dear, we're already there" my wife said.

We left the metro and walked down the street. I admire this place and joke about it. My wife likes it.

The day will soon be over. We rode the Ferris wheel. It was awesome! I remembered my youth when I often rode on amusement rides.

My little son has been everywhere and he liked it.

Tales from childhood: Did I do the right thing?

"You must leave him! You're a young and beautiful woman, and your husband has become ugly! Such a person can ruin your whole life!" some woman in the city center said.

Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Timothy's ex-wife. The same "man without face" the rest isn't so important.

It's just that society put a lot of pressure on me. Everyone around me said that a woman and a small child shouldn't be with such a man. So, I decided to leave Timothy together with our daughter.

"You did the right thing. Timothy must live somewhere in the forest far from people." my neighbor said.

Also, I once overheard Mrs. Anne's conversation and she said that I was a traitor! I had to accept Timothy as he is and teach the child this. But that's it! There isn't longer such an opportunity!

"Your wife acted very meanly with you. She can't just up and leave!" Mrs. Anne told Timothy.

Well, please tell me, what should I have done?!

Tales from childhood: How I look at life.

Good evening, everyone! I'm a friend of Raymond's family. I want to tell you about my views.

I'm a positive person. That's what my wife says. If you succeed, then it's good. And if not, then you didn't really want it. Maybe you can do these things next time.

Also, of someone speaks badly about you, don't be upset, because if people call you that, it's they who call you that.

I immediately forget about such trifles. And I advise others to do the same.

"Yes, that's how it should be!" my child said.

Hello, people! I'm Sophie. I want to tell with you about situation.

Angela is my friend. I know her good enough. 

Once there was such a case with her. She was beaten by the boys from the neighborhood. Then her own mother called her bad words for it. She said that Angela was to blame for everything and shouldn't expect protection from her. Besides. her daughter was older than those boys.

"What is this?" Natalie asked Angela, when she saw her bruises.

What do you think about this situation?
