What My Family Mean To Me

You know the feelings you get when you’re with somebody you care about, with somebody you love. Well that is the feelings I get when I’m with my family. My family is always there for me, when I’m hurt and when I’m upset. They are the ones I can count on for any problem I have. I learned everything from my grandpa. He taught me to how to plant food. When my grandpa came into my life, I started to work hard around the house. My dad taught me how to be kind to others. He taught me everything about life and about faith.

See when I was growing up, my dad took care of me and my sister. When I was five and my sister was four my dad took us to the U.S. to live here. Me and my sister left everybody we cared about in Mexico, our grandma, our grandpa, our aunts and ancles, and our cousins were all back in Mexico the places we left behind to move to the U.S.

Then came my stepmom. She was kind to us and she was funny too. She had three kids. Two of them were at Mexico. One was here in the U.S. Then my stepmkom’s kids came to the U.S. They were kind and funny. Me and my sister like them like they were our real brother and sister. Three years have past. There was a newborn in the family our little sister Mimi. Two more years have past my little sister now knows how to walk. Her first word was papa. I love my family and everyone in it. We are all family in this world and we are all brothers and sisters. That is my story about what my family means to me.
