Document Summary
Lost childhood: i, jenny, see my childhood as a lost paradise, and i know why. The years have brought me leisure to reflect on the early happiness and hilarity. A marvelous life i had till i was thirteen. 3: my father worked on the farm. He had nothing special as other people would notice. However, he loved me, he loved all six of us, but i was the oldest, and i was his favorite. On holidays from school he would say, come on gal, we"re going somewhere. " he made everything so alive and vivid to me. She was always apart from us: i grew up knowing my mother had not long to live. I never felt close to her as i did to my father. She sat on an old sofa, whipcord, hard horsehair, and she coughed and she was always dreadfully pale. She always seemed to have the mark of death on her.
