Where did I get my insparation



I knew that I wanted to write my essay about my family. But I could not think of any thing to write about. Then I thought about movies that have big families and how funny they are. My family is not really rude and we are not out of control, but it would be funny if we were wild. So I began thinking of the movie Nanny McPhee, the kids were so bad that they could not keep a nanny for more than three days. In fact they made it a contest to see the fastest time that they could get rid of the nanny. They did things such as pretend that they cooked the baby and were eating her like a fried chicken, baking their socks into the potatoes, and refusing to go to bed. Until Nanny McPhee came and helped make everything change. Instead of having a nanny actually come in my essay, it is basically telling all the different talents and characteristics that the nanny would have to have. It states different things that makes each child in my family themselves. Not all of them are true, but for the most part they are. I made it seem like it would be impossible to be our nanny basically because we do not need one. This is simply because we have a mother who is always there for us and no one could ever take her place.

Ha! That sounds like an awesome essay! I wish I could read that one! I know what you mean it would be weird to have a nanny. I am glad My mom is there for me too. I also have a huge family. Not like immediate family but tons of aunts uncles cousins etc. and we all live really close to each other. It gets pretty hectic at frequent family gatherings!
