Abraham Gilbert - 8
I’m a cute boy at the age of 8 and I spend my most of time working in the fields, I’m always bored. We play marbles and cup-and-ball. I go to school. I like to sleep the most though. I’m glad I’m not super poor because poor people work 24/7 and I couldn’t handle that. I try to stay out of trouble so mom doesn't yell at me. I have one friend down the road and he's the only one I talk to. My mom works really hard, she never has time to play with us. I've never seen my father, mom says he's with in the war. Every now and then a man named Jack comes along and talks to mother, Jack seems like a nice man but he doesn't like to talk to me it seems.
