My parents meet in college and got married after two years of dating.One year later my mom gave birth to my older brother.
-
I was born at St Louis hospital in Missouri. When I was born the doctor didn't handle me with complete care which resulted in a dislocated hip.
-
My hip was in a cast for 6 months, this upset my mother very much because she was afraid I wouldn’t be able to walk. I was a very fussy eater and wouldn't eat much. I would cry all the time and drive everyone crazy.
-
My fist words were "ma ma", and when I learned how to talk I would talk all the time. Because my hip was in a cast I learned how to walk a little later than other kids. At that age a child is using the three elements of language content, form and use. I learned two languages at once.
-
My mother was a stay at home mom. My dad worked a lot of hours and I didn't see him much. For six months my grandparents lived with us to help my mother to take care of my brother and I. I had a very good relationship with my brother.
-
I was active as child and did a lot of different activities instead of watching tv all day. I was very skinny and wouldn’t each much, which bothered my mom. My best friend was my brother and would always spend time with him and take different classes together.
-
At home we spoke farsi and at school I would speak English. My mom would always teach us farsi and arabic. We took many sport classes such as basketball and swimming.
-
I was much attached to my mother and any separation more than a couple of hours would devastate me. My mom would take my brother and I to different places each day and play with us all the time. I also had a deep emotional attachment to my aunt who lived in a different state.
-
Due to my dad’s job we had to move a lot so I changed many schools. It was very hard for me and I lost many of my friends. I spent my preschool in America and then moved to Iran to start elementary school fist and second grade. Then came back to America for fourth and fifth grade then moved back to Iran for middle school and high school.
-
In third and fourth year I spent a lot of my time doing sports. At recess I would mostly sit and talk to my friends.
-
when I was in America I would study English at school and Farsi at home. But when I was in Iran I would learn Farsi at school and English at home. I did many extracurricular activities.
