After reading the passage, what is a word that could be used to describe Samantha?
What did Samantha’s mom mean by saying that the alarm clock would be her best friend?
Friends in the Morning
Samantha was not a morning person. Every morning when her mom called, she’d snuggle down under the blankets for a few more minutes. She would stay there until her mom came to get her. She knew that this annoyed her mom and that her mom would come yell at her, but Samantha felt like the extra minutes of comfort and warmth were well worth it.
Then one morning, Samantha woke up and listened. She wondered what time it was. She figured it must not be time to get up yet, so she snuggled back down under the covers. Silence. Samantha
began to wonder why she was awake. She began wondering again what time it was. She flipped off the covers and looked at the clock. It read 7:30. She was going to be late! She jumped out of bed and threw on her clothes. Where was her mom? Why hadn’t she woken her up?
Samantha ran downstairs to see her parents sitting at the breakfast table drinking their coffee calmly. “What’s going on?” asked Samantha. “Why didn’t you wake me up?”
“Oh, I did,” replied her mom. “You just chose to stay in bed.”
“Mom, is this one of those ‘I’m trying to teach you a lesson’ moments?” “Is it working?” Mom asked.
A gift was sitting on the breakfast table. “What’s this?” asked Samantha.
“It’s your new best friend,” answered Mom. Samantha unwrapped an alarm clock. A smile crept over her face.

🎤 by Zivert
Every time you're here I can love
Don't you know I've been waiting so long?
Like a first time give me this madness
Just stay and look into my eyes
Every time you're here I can love
Don't you know I've been waiting so long?
Like a first time give me this madness
Just stay and look into my eyes
This life feels right
When you make your own choice
What is best for you?
When you listen to your voice
But some type of it
And you learn from your own mistakes
Now you fall in love
Dangerously arising state
For a second while
Open your beautiful eyes
Bring your talent
But don't tell me lies
Life is full of joy
And it proves our chance
And I love the chance at the first dance
Every time you're here I can love
Don't you know I've been waiting so long?
Like a first time give me this madness
Just stay and look into my eyes
Every time you're here I can love
Don't you know I've been waiting so long?
Like a first time give me this madness
Just stay and look into my eyes

When you don't wanna back
Leave each moment

I can see it in your smile
And look at the prominent
And now we are alive from the first time
And your line is occupied
Maybe it was nothing at all
And I'm still in your mind
I'm good to play my role
This perfect carousel
This for kids like being you
Find my playing well
Find attitude
Every time you're here I can love
Don't you know I've been waiting so long?
Like a first time give me this madness
Just stay and look into my eyes
Every time you're here I can love
Don't you know I've been waiting so long?
Like a first time give me this madness
Just stay and look into my eyes
Every time you're here I can love
Don't you know I've been waiting so long?
Like a first time give me this madness
Just stay and look into my eyes
