Lucky girl

Once there lived a humble couple who never fought and always loved each other very much. They had two cute and adorable boys. Soon they had another baby girl. She was the jewel of that house because she was the only girl. Her brothers used to love her so much and they used to say, "Mom, rock the cradle slowly or else the baby might fall." You may be eager to know who she is. But wait, you'll know at the end of the story.

She had many people to chat with from when she learned to talk. She used to be with her brothers always and carried one small bag and enjoyed school life even though she wasn't old enough to know what school was. She was pampered and petted by her parents and brothers. She used to think about how she came to be on earth. She imagined that she was an angel who flew above the world to see a lovely place where she could get in. She said that when she looked down she found a good couple with two sons. She thought that they needed a sister. So she dived into her mother's womb. This was the story of her origin. She soon grew up and now she is in standard IX.

That lucky girl is none other than me.

Vadassery Jasmine Jose, IX
Kochi: Crescent Public School, Chalakudy
