Hello, my name is Alice Johnson. My husband, George Johnson, and I, have three children: John, Jane, and James. I'm twenty years of age and George is twenty five. Our happy family lives on the outskirts of Philidelphia, Pennsylvania. I am a housewife and George has a job in the city working in a shoe factory.
Although he's unhappy working in a shoe factory, we need the money to pay for food and our house. As a housewife, I make the family's clothes and tend to the cooking and cleaning. James, at the age of four, has just begun attending school. Throughought the day, Jane helps me with minor chores such as weeding the garden but she also gets to play with her younger brother John, who is two. When James returns from school, he joins John in helping their father tend to our few farm animals. Our animals consist of five chickens and a cow. The children are still quite young to be doing a lot of chores but they're old enough to collect eggs and help prepare dinner.
My husband and I hope that all three of our children can attend college and we are both seeking higher paying jobs so we can better provide for our children. We also live in a small three-room cottage. Our family often travels to the city to visit George's family and sell the eggs that we can spare. I plan on starting a service for sewing clothes for other families in the area. George and I are very excited for our future and the future of our children who will do great things.
