Bean Bag
It was show and tell day. I was told to bring something to show and tell. I chose my mom instead.

I told the teacher to set up the scene and allowed the show to begin. Little did I know.. I was going to be in the show as I told.

A quick turn and wind followed as I flew into the bean bag and the crowd cheered loudly "do it again!" and we did. She never actually hit me. I was excited. I studied her movements on television and couldn't wait to show her off. She had beat the worlds best Russian fighter and had won hands down. I was so very proud of her. And til this day.. I still am.
See my mom.. who is my aunt by blood... was a martial arts fighter. She had won awards and was even on television. So when they asked for an item to show and tell.. I showed my hero.
