Most people would not trust a cheetah to be that close to them, but Rex and the man in the picture shows us something else. ]]> 2020-12-15 20:20:20 UTC https://padlet.com/3599072/y4d3z1bilqdx7s4l/wish/1021807517 3599072 https://padlet.com/3599072/y4d3z1bilqdx7s4l/wish/1021818338 "Don't worry, God understands," Mom said.

Later on, she also says something similar to reference in Erma. This shows us how we have to forgive people and their bad qualities, because everyone has a soft spot where they care and have feelings. ]]> 2020-12-15 20:23:34 UTC https://padlet.com/3599072/y4d3z1bilqdx7s4l/wish/1021818504 3599072 https://padlet.com/3599072/y4d3z1bilqdx7s4l/wish/1021818769 "Never did build that Glass Castle."]]> 2020-12-15 20:23:39 UTC https://padlet.com/3599072/y4d3z1bilqdx7s4l/wish/1021818769 3599072 https://padlet.com/3599072/y4d3z1bilqdx7s4l/wish/1021818903 When Jeannette came to visit Rex and Rose Mary, they told her that he had an incurable rare disease. They reminisced on the uncompleted Glass Castle. The Glass Castle was Rex's focus throughout his lifetime so that his family would never have to ask for anything, but it never began construction past the foundation that the kids dug. ]]> 2020-12-15 20:23:41 UTC https://padlet.com/3599072/y4d3z1bilqdx7s4l/wish/1021818903 3599072 https://padlet.com/3599072/y4d3z1bilqdx7s4l/wish/1021819105 "Lori would leave by herself for New York in June, after she graduated.

She and Lori devise a plan for them to leave to New York after each end high school. This shows that Jeannette, Lori, and later on Brian, move from childhood into adulthood, leaving their parents behind. ]]> 2020-12-15 20:23:48 UTC https://padlet.com/3599072/y4d3z1bilqdx7s4l/wish/1021819265 3599072 https://padlet.com/3599072/y4d3z1bilqdx7s4l/wish/1021819723 "'Hey,' he said. He winked and pointed his finger at me. 'Have I ever let you down?' He started chuckling because he knew there was only one way I could even answer that question. I just smiled.

They all have had to rely on each other, or just theirselves, for most of their lives.]]> 2020-12-15 20:24:05 UTC https://padlet.com/3599072/y4d3z1bilqdx7s4l/wish/1021820499
