阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
School mornings were always busy. The first sentence I usually heard was. ''It's time to rise! '' It was Mom's loudest voices, and there was no way I could pretend not to hear it or hide from it.
By then. I couldn’t get to the kitchen fast enough. In fact, it was a race between my sister, my brother, and me. We usually seated ourselves at the same time, sometimes knocking each other out of our places. After breakfast, we all rushed out to the bus stop as we took our lunch bags that contained a sandwich, fruit, and dessert.
Then, one day, much to my surprise, there was no dessert in my lunch! What could have happened to it? Did Mom forget to make or buy it? Oh, well, I thought. It's only one time, so it’s no big deal. But, for the next few days, my lunch contained no dessert! So one day, after school, as soon as I got home, I asked, ''Mom! Why haven't you been putting a dessert in my school lunch? ''
Mom answered, ''Why, Eugene, I have been including a dessert in your lunch. If you're not getting them, then who is? ''
So then we thought of my activities, and what I did with my lunch each day. As soon as I arrived at school, I always put my lunch in the classroom closet(储物间) along with all of the other lunches. And that brought us to Carl-the bad boy of the third - grade classroom. The teacher didn't like him in class and would send him to the closet, where he would spend most of each day.
Carl lived in a group foster home(集体寄养之家). He was loud and somewhat of a thief, he would take just about anything that wasn't fastened down(盖紧), so he wasn’t welcome at school. Mom and I decided that with nothing else to do Carl was probably going through the lunches and eating what he liked.

Five tips for emotional training
Training your children on their emotions(情绪) is the work of those adults who want to nurture(培养) emotional health. I can also say that the best emotional trainings do certain things, which I list as my ''Top Five'' pointers, and here they are:
Connect
Be able to see the situation from your children’s perspective(视角). 1.. They'll feel you're on their side and you want to understand. Speaking angrily is a sign of disconnection.
2.
The calmer we can stay, the better chance our children have of learning how to calm themselves. Of course, there are moments when being calm feels out of the question, which is why learning how to stay calm and centered during an emotional storm is a good practice.
Listen fully
Being able to honestly hear what a child is saying can be important. 3.. You are there for them. Even saying ''I'm here for you'' can help greatly.
4.
Children make mistakes when emotionally triggered(被触发)-like we all do, especially early on in our development. But the best emotional trainings focus on solving the ''emotional problem'' rather than just punishment for a not-so-smart choice.
Learn together
5.. We may be learning patience and forgiveness, while our children may be learning how to skillfully handle their big emotions like anger or sadness.
Children are impressionable. I remember being a young child and having a ''flashbulb moment(闪光瞬间) '' when someone said something that changed my mind. I remember everything about that moment for better or worse. So, our aim is to give our children positive flashbulb moments.
A. Be a calming presence
B. Make effective punishment
C. Focus on problem-solving not punishment
D. You can pretend to agree whatever they say
E. This doesn't mean you totally agree, but you hear them
F. We’re always learning alongside our children
G. Putting yourself in their shoes helps build a stronger connection
