Chapter 8 : Easter

Jess and his family had plan to go to church on Easter. Since his mom had a big fallout with the preacher, Easter is the only time Jess and his family actually goes to church. His mom was going shopping for new church clothes, but something happened. Jess' dad came home from Washington early. The family soon learned that he got fired. That meant no new clothes. No church. Everyone was complaining about the situation. Leslie came to see Jess who was the only one not in the house. He told Leslie his dad got fired and didn't want to talk about it. Leslie then told Jess she wanted to go to church with him and his family. Jess was surprised. He thought Leslie wouldn't like something as boring as church.

This reminds me of when my mom lost her job. It was 2005. My mom had her third child a year before. She was home and got a call from her co-worker and friend Silvia. Silvia said that the old man that they took care of had died. He was taken to the hospital and died there. It was tough a little, but we didn,t live like poor people. My little brother's dad helped my mom out with money and soon, my mom got a second job doing the samething, but took care of a Jewish woman name Annie, who is really funny.
