MY CHILDHOOD MEMORIES

It is a little hard for me to talk about my past shortly because there are a lot of experiences I would want to explain.

Thinking about my daily life, the first thing I remember is that I spent a lot of time with my grandparents. My parents had to start work very early, so at night, or in the afternoon depending on each day, I always went to sleep at my grandparents’ house, one week to my paternal grandparents’ and the next week to my maternal ones.
There, we played board games, even we cooked desserts.

Thinking about parties, I especially remember we used to celebrate my brother’s birthday and mine together. All the family came home and we had supper. We had a very big cake and all our cousins blew the candles out. Now, I have a picture of that moment and I always smile when I see it.

The thing that has changed most is Christmas. When I was a child it was the best holiday of the year. All was wonderful. I believed in its magic in a different way from now, because the last times my little cousins are who give excitement to this festivity.

I am growing up and I miss that time, when we lived each day without problems. But we have to go on, always thinking positively and looking ahead, because there are many things waiting for us to live and new emotions to feel.
