Student Model

Trading Places

I would like to trade places with my mom. She stays home and cooks, cleans, and washes the dishes. I would like to trade places with her because she gets to bake cakes, and watch TV. If I were my mom for a whole day I would make vegetarian lazonya, garlic bread, and salad. Thats my favorite meal. I would also give all of us kids an alouance. Sometimes I would feel tiered at the end of the day. I would be tiered because I cooked, cleaned, and did all the other things moms do best. But on the inside I would feel great.
