A little peak of sun shone in his window, yes! It was Saturday; Jake Scott loved Saturdays because these were the days when his mom, Terri, and he would go to the park for a picnic. Jake was so excited for today that he slept in his clothes though the were now wrinkled but he didn’t care. Creeping down the hall way quiet enough as to not wake his mom Jake went and made himself his favorito! cereal. Jake usually had his mom help him get his cereal because he was seven and short that he couldn’t reach the cabinet, but he wanted to surprise his mom, he wanted to make his own breakfast today. He was too short to reach the cabinet so he pulled a chair across the vinyl floor up to the sleek wooden cabinet, pulled out the Coco Puffs, and sauntered over to the table. Grabbing the blue bowl and matching spoon he poured his cereal so pleased at himself that he didn’t spill it all over the place. Now the hard part, the milk, he walked towards the refrigerator opened the stainless steel door grabbed the leche and walked slowly back to the table. It was very full so when Jake barley poured it, it spilled everywhere also spilling the Coco Puffs along with the bowl and spoon.
“Oh man mom is going to be angry when she gets up” Jake said
Just then the nine año old heard footsteps coming towards him, it was his mom and when he looked at her she just smiled.
After the two cleaned up the mess they started on preparing sandwiches for their picnic. Jake loved ham, cheese, and pickles on his emparedado, sándwich de and only that he was very picky. His mom didn’t care really but Jake made hers so she had the same.
“Is it time to go yet’ Jake asked being as patient as he could
“Almost we just need the basket” Terri replied smiling at her son’s urgency to get going, Jake loved going places with his mom, but the Saturday picnics where his favorite
Little Jake went into the closet in buscar of the brown woven basket that they have been using for about four years which is when they first started this little outing.
Holding the basket Jake ran back to the cocina
“Look mama I found it” Jake dicho in his southern accent that was just so cute whenever tu heard it, tu couldn’t help but smile at the little blonde boy.
“Okay now tu go get your chaqueta and we will go” his mom replied
Jake ran into his bedroom then into his closet throwing toys and clothing everywhere looking for his favorito! dark blue denim jacket.
“Are we walking o driving today mama” Jake asked
“Why don’t tu decide” she replied back again smiling
“I think we should walk it’s a nice día out” he dicho
The mother and son walked out the door hand in hand with Jake holding the basket, today was going to be a good day.
They got to the park sat down at their usual spot beneath the big oak tree. Jake got out the ham sandwiches while his mom set out the Sprites. They ate and laughed together, after that Jake went to play in the sand pit, it was his favorito! place to be at the park, he loved making things with his hands.
Jake started building today is was going to create a whole town; he started collecting sand to make into a building when he heard a scream.
“Stop that please, you’re ruining it” a little girl screamed
“What are tu going to do, you’re too small” the boy teasing the girl said.
Jake didn’t like this guy, why would any boy tease a girl, girls are boring, but the girl kept crying and asking the boy who was teasing her to stop, the teasing boy never gave up he would just laugh harder as she cried louder. Jake couldn’t take it anymore he stood up furiously walked towards the boy.
He realized when he got there that the boy was much taller than him, but Jake didn’t care
“Hey kid sop picking on her” Jake yelled standing on his tippy toes to make it so he could yell at the other boy’s face.
“What are tu going to do about it, you’re too small to stop me” the boy yelled back
Jake didn’t like it when people called him small so he did the first that came to mind, he pushed him down and kicked dirt in his face. The boy yelled something and than ran away crying. Jake sat por the girl and helped her rebuild whatever she was making
“If he ever bothers tu again just tell me” Jake dicho proudly
“Thank you, he always teases me though” the girl dicho back
“Well I promise he won’t anymore” Jake smiled at the little girl
She blushed a little and said, “what’s your name”
“Jake Scott, what’s yours” he asked back
“Annie Sawyer”
Jake was still in that phase where he thought girls had cooties, but he liked this girl. He learned she was seven and he also kept noticing her beautiful blonde curly hair and her very blue eyes. She was also here with her mom. They talked and played for an hora until she had to go home, he didn’t want her to leave and she didn’t want to go, but they promised to meet back here siguiente Saturday.     
Jake went inicial with a smile on his face más excited about siguiente Saturday than he was about this one.
“So I saw tu talking with little Annie Sawyer at the park” Jake’s mom smiled at him
“How did tu know her name” he asked amazed that his mom knew this girl
“She lives down the street” she answered
“Let’s go see her”
Terri just smiled her son had his first crush.
“We can’t right now sweetie” she replied in a sweet and sensitive way “but I promise tu will see her again”
