//Toby, the Patriot Son// Gathering information: Ø  What was your daily life like? (Write a paragraph describing a typical day) This morning I woke up and I helped my Mom with breakfast. After that my older brother and my Dad went to work. My Mom, my little sisters and I stayed home. Then I went outside to wash the dishes. When I was done I asked my sister were my mom was. She said milking the cows. I asked her if she needed help, and she said to go down to the lake and wash all of our cloths. When I was done I hung it up to dry. She asked me if I could help her clean. I said sure, so I did. Then I decided to sit down and take a break before my Dad and my brother get home from work. But as soon as I sat down I heard my Mother calling out my name. Then I heard "help me with supper." I rushed down stairs to help her. Then my Dad and brother came home. As soon as they came home we all sat down and ate supper. After that I helped my mother with the dishes. After that if we still have time we do what ever we like. My mom likes to take my little sisters outside to play. My Dad and my brother go outside and play games. I like to stay inside and work on some sewing. Then, when it starts getting dark my family comes inside and goes to bed.
