Catherine Perkins
Sidewalk Talk reporter Catherine Perkins also delivers the Beacon Hill News and South District Journal once a week to some of the paper's young carriers and to locations around the South End's neighborhoods. She has two sons, Jeffry at the University of Washington, and Victor at Garfield High School.
One of her favorite guidelines is "a good person is one who does not depend upon persons of eminence or despise those of humble station... who, not relying upon the opinions of others - upholds that which is just."
Anita Hall
Yes, I do. Well, I have a lot of dreams. Right now I have a home child care business, for 12 years. Last year I opened another business I called the Chicken Shack, on Rainier. I opened on May 15, 2005. My problem is, how do I tear myself in half? My purpose in life is to cook. What I've done to satisfy that is I do catering. I want to give up my childcare business. I started out with six, moved to eight - now I'm at 12. I can't find someone to step in and take it. The children are like my own, and not everybody likes working with children.

I have a lot of dreams. I guess the most important thing for me is to live a long healthy life to see my grandchildren grow up; I go to water aerobics to get in shape.
My dream for them is to be well-educated and be successful in life.
Malik Mitchell
Yes, my dream is to be just like my dad. He's a fireman and a carpenter, and he's fun.
