I got to meet my parents and they got to meet there firstborn. I was was born at 12:31 pm weighing 6.5 lbs. On the 1st day I was born I scratched my face (as you an tell in the picture) I now I have a small scare. 3 days later I got to leave the hospital and go to my new home. this was the most amazing day.

My sister was born on March 26, 2007. At first, I was happy with the idea of having a younger sister. but Once I meet her I changed my mind. I was around four when I became a big sister. My sister Cindy was very cute as a baby. the first day she came home I spent the whole day playing with her (i might have annoyed her a little) but would also get annoyed when she would start crying because she was hungry. My parents were very happy and grateful to have another healthy baby girl.

My first day of kindergarten was scary and exciting at the same time. I don't remember much but, I know I was scared because it was something new to me and also I only spoke little English and was scared no one would understand me. But as I got to my homeroom I saw that I wasn't the only one. I made many new friends on my first day of school. Many of which I'm still friends with. I remember always being excited about going outside and playing with my new friends. kindergarten was fun.

Going to Guatemala was scary because it was my first time traveling and I was doing it all alone. I was around 8 when I went. Once I got to Guatemala I was excited because I was going to meet my cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents. I remember all of them being there waiting for me to get out and meet me. It was such a nice experience because I got to explore the cities from which my parents came from. But after a month of being there, I missed home and came back to my parents and sister.

going to Tikal was a nice trip. Being able to see the Mayan temples and villages and also going on the jungle side and see all the animals. I was able to Climb up one of the temples it a bit difficult because the stairs are short and steep. but once your at the top you see the incredible view. But also have to be careful because you can easily fall off. During my trip, my cousins and I got lost in the jungle but found our way out eventually. this was the best day of my trip to Guatemala.

Towards the end of my 5th grade school year. My Best Friend Eveyln would be moving 228.8 miles away. Evelyn had been my best friend since Kindergarten and we would play each day together since we were neighbors. On her last day here in NY, I helped her pack her things. I was sad that she would be moving away and we wouldn't be able to see each other anymore. I waved good-bye as her mom's car drove away. It was more difficult for me also because on that same day my dad was having surgery.

My family and I went to Florida. after Christmas in 2016. It was a fun trip it took us about a day and a half to get there. We could have got there faster but the car broke down. I was very excited because I knew I was going to warm weather. As I got there I got to reunite with my little cousins. This was a short but fun trip. As I got to explore a new city and wasn't in cold weather.on our second to last day there, we celebrated my little cousin Sophy's birthday and also New Year's Eve.

As the new year began in 2018, my grandpa passed away. I can't say I was close with my grandpa but that doesn't change the fact I loved him and miss him very much. I wasn't close to my grandpa and only got to meet him once. I wish had gone and visited him before he passed. I didn't hit me too hard when I found out. But it did to my mom. My mom hadn't seen him for over 16 years. She didn't get to see him one last time. and my grandpa didn't get to meet all his grandchildren.

On this day my little brother Rudy was born. I was very excited to meet him. I was old enough to take care of him. I wouldn't leave his side. I finally had a baby brother which I could take care of. I would always try to make him comfortable. he's the first boy of the family. Having him home changed many things home. I became very more mature and responsible. I had a whole different experience with him then I did with, my sister. I love him very much and will do anything to protect him.

A month after my brother was born. My parents had to bring him to the E.R. one afternoon. After a whole day of him crying and being uncomfortable my mom didn't know what was going on with him. and took him to the emergency room. It was difficult for everyone. I remember doctors saying that something was wrong with his kidneys. My mom was the only person he wanted to with. He stayed in the hospital for 2 weeks. I could tell he was I'm pain with all those needles in him. His face seemed sad.

My Quince (15) was one of the best days of my life. Getting to be around my family and friends the whole day and knowing they were all there for me. It was a memorable day. My favorite part of the whole day was the father-daughter dance and also my last doll dance. This was a symbol of my going from a little girl to a young woman. The doll would be the last doll I got as a girl. I will never forget this day. Having my friends and family on this special day was very important to me.
