She was quiet, a good student, never particularly outgoing. She had a few friends at school, but she spent a lot of time as a girl playing outdoors by herself, making up games and stories to act out, and she was happy that way. She also liked reading, a hobby she did her best to pass on to John. She was never close to her dad, and he left her mom when Sarah was in high school, so it was just the two of them from then on until Sarah's mother was murdered in cold blood by a terminator a few short years later.
If anyone had tried to tell her what she'd grow up to be, she would have thought they were crazy. She never thought a lot about her future, but if pressed, she would have expected the normal go away to college, get married, have 2.5 kids story.
Sarah was thrown into motherhood without any kind of support system, and most of her focus is on preparing John for the war, but occasionally she'll have brief flashes of guilt for not giving him the same happy childhood that she had, and make an earnest if poorly-executed attempt to do something nice for him and create a good memory for him. Like buying him an unnecessarily large ice cream sundae that promptly makes him sick.
