Pumpernickel in the Kitchen
"Pumpernickel do not go inside the kitchen", I yelled out to my baby brother. I say this multiple times a day while I'm at home watching him. I don't let him go in the kitchen because he plays with the pots, or makes a mess. I really don't let him go in the kitchen because he could hit his head on the tile floor causing him to go into a seizure, and then be sent to the hospital for several days. My brother, Ej, was born with many birth defects which brands him as a special needs baby. My family and I have to constantly watch him to make sure that he doesn't hurt himself. During school time, watching Ej becomes difficult because I have lots of homework, deadlines, and extracurricular activities to do. Ej has a nurse that comes Mon.-Fri from 8am-4pm, and sometimes on Saturday. So when I come from school, I only have a few hours to myself before I have to take care of Ej or my 4 other siblings. I am officer of the Drama club at Taravella High. Drama club's activities are vigorous, and require me to be at every single one. I love my little brother, but I don't want to miss any of my activities. Or I don't want to do poorly on any of my tests because I had to watch him, and no time to study. "Pumpernickel. I already told you that you can't go into the kitchen." I don't even know what's so special about the kitchen to him, but I know that he's very special to me.
