I Almost Died...

When I was in kindergarten, I almost died. This time, it was real; not a dream.

It happened on a Wednesday and the only reason I remember the exact day is because it was my turn for Show-And-Tell. I had brought my GIANT Teddy Bear that I got for Valentine's Day from my Dad. It was almost taller than I was and everyone loved it.

My brother Austin picked my brother Jeremy, my sister Sam, and I from school. To get to our house, we had to cross the train tracks and there was a train after school. So when we got to the tracks, the train was already slowing down because it needed more gas or something. Austin had crossed and was screaming at us to cross because the the train was honking the horn loudly. Jeremy was scared so he had crossed and that left me and Sam. Austin went back and took my giant teddy bear and crossed. I really wanted my bear, so I crossed with Sam and we went home.

Ever since that, I've been convinced that we could've died.
