My second grade class picture in Mexico
This photo was taken in Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua Mexico and it was the last picture I took with my classmates and teacher before I came to live to the united states (El Paso, Tx).

My second grade class In the U.S.
This was the second school I attended in El Paso, Texas. I attended Thomas Manor Elementary first because we lived with my grandma but, then we got our own house so this school was in my area. I was the saddest kid because I didn't know anyone and I didn't speak, or understood English. And I missed all my friends from Mexico. I am at the front row next to the teacher. -
Loosing My Father
This day was one of the saddest and most tragic days for me and my families life because we lost our father/husband. Our hearts were broken and we could not do anything just remember him how we was. I was eight years old when my father passed away but I will always have him in my mind and heart. -
