Pocket Change for Life

I was born in St. Louis, MO. and presently reside. Writing has always been my passion, at an early age and dancing is another. I am a mother, grandmother and great grandmother. I was once married and divorced after twenty-one years. I learned a lot of "I told you so" during this period. This, as well as my childhood, gave me the idea to write a book. As a child, I always experienced things that were uncommon to the natural child. When I was three months old, I could relate to conversation but could not speak my thoughts in words understandable. Here is an example: when I was three months old, my aunt used to take care of me during the hours my mom attended nursing school. Every morning my aunt would come and take me out of my crib and take me upstairs to her house and prop me up on her couch; stacking pillows around me, putting her finger in my face and saying, "Now don't you fall." I would look at her and think to myself, "She thinks I'm a fool, if she thinks I'm going to fall on that hard floor." Another time in my life is when my bed was in the room with my parents. As I was able to pull myself upon the rail, I would wake-up early and noticed them sleeping, so peacefully. I would find my bottle, aim it and throw it, hitting them in the head. The next morning I woke-up by myself in another room and all I could see was walls. I learned mistakes are costly at an early age.
