20 years from now : by ellie:

20 years ago, i was in 7th grade at high tech middle. i was naive in some ways but was mostly smart. now I am a Harvard law graduate and is a lawyer in LA. I have a great house and a loving family living in it. I have 2 children of my own and have adopted another from Tokyo, japan where my my mom's family is living. My husband is a great man to our society. He is a fire fighter. He has helped so many people and saved life's of many many people. People are so grateful for him and his ability to help someone in need. He has gone great lengths to help the people in our society and his family. For instance, my children were at home with a nanny while my husband and I was out. He got paged in the middle of dinner leaving for his job. As I closed the door to the taxi that night, I noticed my house surrounded by fire trucks. “what's going on?!” I cried pushing my way to the front of the crowd that had been created. There were flames flying around as the fire men frantically tried to put it out. Suddenly my husband and another fire man appeared out of the flamed house holding my children and their nanny over their shoulders. With no warning I burst into tears. If something happened to my children, I would never be able to live another day. Lucky they were not severely hurt. It turns out that my children stole some matches from our top cabinet and locked themselves in the bathroom, lighting candles. Missing, mike, my youngest, lite our toilet cover. i am so happy they are safe and is making sure nothing like this happens again.
