Important People

                My mom is one person who has been very important to my life. She is a kind and generous woman and everything about her makes me feel happy to call her my mother. She is a short woman and not that strong since she has aged over the years, but she doesn’t let that stop her from keeping everything in order. I believe she is a strong hard working woman and she inspires me to do great things with my life. I never once heard her complain about all the things she could have done if she didn’t go on and have six kids. She will always be an inspiration to me.

                Another person I look up to is my dad. He is the most patient man I know and I think that is partly because he had to raise six daughters. I am so surprised that me and my sisters didn’t drive him insane growing up but I am glad that he tried his hardest to take care of us. Like my mom, I never once heard him complain about anything. He is also very old and he is not as healthy as he once was but he never let that stop him from working hard long hours every day to keep the food on the table. Without my dad, i would not be the person I am today.

                I have three older sisters and each one of them played an important role in my life growing up but it is my oldest sister who always knew what to say to make me feel better and encourage me to do well. She is like a second mom to me because I am able to relate a lot of my problems to her since I am not so great at speaking Spanish with my mom. Growing up, she was the one I always went to for help.
