Z: Oh yea? I am too pretty for you....

Our Family -- By Abigail Zachko

Untitled, originally uploaded by szachko.

Found this story on my phone, wrote by big one at April 11, 2012 with title: Ou Family.  This is very fascinating..

****************
My family is a little cocky in someways. I'm going to tell you a story based on my own but is about a girl named Emily who sees her family in a different way. Then her way becomes the real way. I hope you enjoy my story!

Okay, in my version my family is like a kingdom, my mom is the queen, my dad the king, and and hannah are the two princesses. I'm going to explain each character. My mom is the queen so of course she has the most power. Usually, the king and the queen have equal amount of power but in this case the queen has the most power. I can tell because my dad (a.k.a king Demwire) can't make a choice without my mom. Plus, mom usually gets her way. Once they were in a argument then dad just stopped fighting and gave mom all of the victory.

Next Zoe and I. Me and Zoe are like fire and water. Hannah is a little divaish I would say. But somehow in a good way she sort of like the more girly princess. She likes the dresses and the makeup. I on the other hand HATE makeup and the dresses well they really stink. Me and Hanna fight all the time, too. However, she usually wins.

Oh I almost forgot about Mimi our royal cat. Ya she's pretty old and and grumpy. She's white with black spots. Or is she black with white spots? Never really thought about that. Hmmmmmmmm?

I'm going to tell you how this all became a little realistic.

Struggle....

Tenafly Story, originally uploaded by szachko.

Moving from Hoboken to Tenafly is not an easy transition. We all missed those colorful life style and cherish friends. It was hitting hard on girls as well.

I really admire their courages to put up their best efforts to face this new environment, be good at school and make new friends. It is not easy, and is quite a struggle. But we are family, we are together to get through this.. Cheers! My lovely ones....

How did a place get its name..

Spring 2013, originally uploaded by szachko.

Girls were curious about how Hoboken got its name..

Daddy thought it was named after a hobo named Ken.

Following this logic, girls came to the conclusion how Tenafly got its name -- cause it gets Tons of Flys......

Competition

After Super Storm Sandy, originally uploaded by szachko.

Just moved to the neighborhood 6 months ago. Girls are still adjusting the change. I could feel the little one feel some challenge...

Z: Mom, it is so competitive here to get a best friend with someone at a new school

Mom: My little one, your friends do not know you well, yet. Once they realize how cool you are, they would all compete to be your best friend.

You could see her eyes just light up...
