Madison's English Writing prompt. In perspective of my Mom.

In perspective of my Mom.

Madison is 17 years old. She has long blond hair. Chris, my husband, named her after her great grandfather. Earlier in her life, I could tell she felt her name was boyish and strange. Because her name was a boy name, she never participated in little girl activities. I was happy to finally see her accepting her name around 12 years old; about the time she graduated into Young Womens Mutual. She still hates the girly stuff, but turned out socially stable. While experiencing being a middle child, she became very desperate for attention. She’s grown out of her loneliness. Making friends at her knew school has helped her with a lot of her communication skills. Madison has always loved to see knew things. Her best friend Emily is the same away. They used to jump from high places just to prove they were brave. They called themselves “the dare devils.” They also loved to try disgusting foods to know what everything tasted like in the world. Madison never wore shoes when she was younger. Once, on a 6 mile hike down Uinta trail, she went bare foot the whole way, trying to prove shoes were a conspiracy. She is adventurous, stubborn, a hand full, and expensive! She may be the most expensive child we have ever had! She doesn’t ask for a lot of things, but when she wants something, it is usually a good thing she needs, but also expensive. Her Cello was purchased at seven hundred when she turned 10. But she knows it has all been hard to give her all she wants, and tries to show us how grateful she is. She loves her family and knows never to object when I ask her to baby sit, not because she has to, but because she knows how hard mothering can be, and when ever she gets a chance, she becomes the mom and puts the house in order. Today, she is still that sensitive, passionate, adventurous girls she will always be.
