When I was 13, I was visiting a classmate\u2019s house for dinner. My family didn\u2019t have much, and I couldn\u2019t help but stare at the golden roast on the table. As I hesitated to take a portion, my classmate\u2019s mom noticed. With a sharp look, she took my plate and piled it high with food. I was surprised, but it made me realize how much she understood what that meal meant to me.<\/p>\n
The next day, I came home from school to find Mrs. Cooper at our house, visiting my mom.
