I got really scared yesterday.  When I looked outside there was a very bright light out there.  I couldn’t figure out what it was.  I didn’t want Mom to go out there, but she did!

What are you babbling about, Steinbeck?  You know perfectly well that the bright light was the sun!

But we hadn’t seen it for so long.  I thought maybe it had left for good.  That’s why the bright light scared me!

Don’t worry, Steinbeck.  I’m here to take care of you.  That’s what big brothers are for!
