Is a lot more challenging when you come from a different country. Adopting to a new culture and their ways of living was a lot more harder than what I expected it. Growing up I thought everything was easy until I became a young lady and I understood what it was for my mom to leave me at age 1 with my grandparents for her to make her way to the USA to start a new way of life.

I can’t imagine any other happier moment in my moms life than to have her daughter here with her for the first time after 6 years of not seeing her.

Coming home everyday at 12 midnight to have to wake up at 5am to get me ready and walk me to school was very draining don’t you think.?
