jESSiCA gONZAlEZ's liFE STORy

I rember when I gave birth to my daughter. She was born almost
at the same time as my son. First she came out and then like 10 minutes later my son came out. We didn’t know what to name her. I wanted to name her Adriana, but my older son didn’t really like that name. So he said if her name could be Jessica. We all agreed to that name. So basically her older brother named her. she was the one that gave her the name she has. My older son always use to play with her, but she use to hit him. I remember when she was like 7 years old we all had come back from my sisters house and it was already late. Jessica went to sleep as soon as we got home and her brothers were playing. I had gone downstairs because I smelled something burning. Then I realize that the house was burning. I told all my kids to get out, I had to wake up Jessica so she could get out. Later on everything worked out. Yeah we got scared, but everyone was ok.

We had moved a lot of times. We couldn’t fine the right house. Some were to small or some were to expensive. Plus I was like 7 months pregnant. When I gave birth to my last kid I almost died, but good thing everything worked out good. My sister had told us to move were she lives at and that she would find somewhere else because she wanted something bigger. So we moved in. The kids liked it there. That’s were Jessy made all her friends. She always use to go out and spend time with her friends. She always use to go to Jasmins house. And at the time she still goes over there. Not as much anymore, but she still goes over there. She always has problems with kids. I don’t know why. They say its because of her attitude, but I don’t know. Most of the time she works them out. She’s not really a fighter, but she will fight for what she loves. Basically she always goofs off, and she don’t care what other people think. By being who she is she has found a lot of friends.

On January 4 was when she turned 14. Life is getting kind of tuff for her now. She has certain problems with certain kids. Last year her brother got locked up, and now his in provation. She has lost and found important people. She lost one of her friends, they took away her best friend. Now she don’t want to lose no one else. She’s tired of the drama she has. Right now all she is hopping for is for things to go right for her. All she is doing is taking life as it goes.
