In my bed that night my memory jogged by a blackberry pie at the Winterbottoms' home.  Phoebe and I snuck up behind my father, but he turned around at the last second. Before my mother could say anything, he pointed proudly to the fence he had built that morning. My mother had burst into tears, repeating over and over that she was not good enough for him. The next morning after that night. My mother had put bowls of freshly picked blackberries out on the breakfast table, and, when her father kissed her with thanks, she asserted that she was almost as good as her husband. ]]> 2018-01-23 13:04:12 UTC https://padlet.com/gregorygarbinski1/5fgw4jqzy5yr/wish/223744386 gregorygarbinski1 https://padlet.com/gregorygarbinski1/5fgw4jqzy5yr/wish/223748371 This morning I woke up and found out that my mother left me. She was missing and no on can fine her. I went outside to feel her presence can help me to remind me why I love her. I also went to the ocean today. I felt like she came closer each time the tided rises and when the tides falls it felt she was running away from me. "The day returns, but nevermore Returns the traveler to the shore, And the tide rises, the tide falls" (170). When the tided falls and the tided rises she fells her mothers presence. ]]> 2018-01-23 13:13:38 UTC https://padlet.com/gregorygarbinski1/5fgw4jqzy5yr/wish/223748371 gregorygarbinski1 https://padlet.com/gregorygarbinski1/5fgw4jqzy5yr/wish/223748555 The bus accidentally crashed. This is the women that sat next to my mom on the bus. She was the only survival out of fifty passengers on the bus. She knew that her mother died with her 'singing tree' a tree with a songbird living in its highest branches. My father knew about Margret because of the sheriff relationship with her. This is why we had a go away with Bybanks because my father wanted to talk to Margret and what my mother has been talking to her about my mom on the bus. Also my father had o get away from Bybanks because my mother been. ]]> 2018-01-23 13:13:58 UTC https://padlet.com/gregorygarbinski1/5fgw4jqzy5yr/wish/223748555 alyssamace41 https://padlet.com/gregorygarbinski1/5fgw4jqzy5yr/wish/223750156 2018-01-23 13:17:39 UTC https://padlet.com/gregorygarbinski1/5fgw4jqzy5yr/wish/223750156 alyssamace41 https://padlet.com/gregorygarbinski1/5fgw4jqzy5yr/wish/223751115 Gram and Gramps are my crazy grandparents who can't drive at all. They took me on a road trip where my mother has been to. "My grandparents came up with a plan to drive from Kentucky to Ohio where they would pick me up and stay with my mom" (4)  So I can see what my mother saw on her journey.  I must make it to Lewiston for my Mom's birthday, which is in seven days. At 3 0'clock this morning my gram died from a stroke because of the snake bite at the river in South Dakota. Tonight when me and Gramps went in the car and I saw Gram and Gramps suitcase open with their clothes all mixed up and I picked up gram's baby powder  and smelled it then   ]]> 2018-01-23 13:20:05 UTC https://padlet.com/gregorygarbinski1/5fgw4jqzy5yr/wish/223751115 noahblanchard1 https://padlet.com/gregorygarbinski1/5fgw4jqzy5yr/wish/223751274 I think Ben likes me. He touched me and I flinched. But the really weird thing is that he always tries to touch me. I tried to kiss Ben because I liked the smell of his hair, but my lips ended up on the locker. Ben gave me a chicken named Blackberry. The first kiss was when I was with his mom and felt like i needed to kiss him. The second kiss he gave me a chicken and I was very proud and thought I should give her another kiss. For one quick moment we looked at each other. This reminded us of Mr. Birkway's drawing of the two faces. ]]> 2018-01-23 13:20:29 UTC https://padlet.com/gregorygarbinski1/5fgw4jqzy5yr/wish/223751274 gregorygarbinski1 https://padlet.com/gregorygarbinski1/5fgw4jqzy5yr/wish/224685435 I feel really jealous and i hope your mom feels better about bursting in tears.]]> 2018-01-25 15:12:33 UTC https://padlet.com/gregorygarbinski1/5fgw4jqzy5yr/wish/224685435 gregorygarbinski1 https://padlet.com/gregorygarbinski1/5fgw4jqzy5yr/wish/224688621 Thank you for telling me everything about my mom.
