“It helped some, but he could still hear them and knew there was no way he was going to go back to sleep. He’d looked to see if the fog was still hanging around when he got up to go to the bathroom and check on his mom. The sky was clear, and she was sleeping on the sofa. He saw that his dad had been there first and covered her with a blanket, so he went back to bed.

Sharing a day with a whole country that was supposed to be special just for him was hard. He could never have his party on the actual day because his friends were always busy doing something with their families.
Then his sister was born on his birthday and it had made him a little mad that he would have to share the day with her, too. He never said anything to anyone and even changed his mind when Angela came home and he saw how cool it could be to have a little sister grab his finger and hold on like she knew what she was doing.MoreLess Read More Read Less
