                                             My Childhood By Anahi Gomez


                       I grew up in an old house in Mexico where the paint was peeling off the walls. It was

               very chilly and cold at night time, but in the daytime, it was very humid and pretty outside. The

                                                                                             small house I


                                                                                             grew up in was

                                                                                             filled with many


                                                                                             family

                                                                                             members. Our


                                                                                             house was the

                                                                                             oldest in the


                                                                                             neighborhood

                                                                                             and sometimes I


                                                                                             felt embarrassed

                                                                                             of where we

               lived and how many of us were living in it.


                       I felt really sad but at the same time, I was happy because I was moving to a place where

               I would not feel embarrassed anymore. I felt sad because I was going to move somewhere I


               didn't know, and I knew I would be leaving behind the only home I had ever known. I knew no

               matter how old and ugly the house was, I would miss the good memories made there. I will


               always remember when I would go outside and play soccer with all the kids and go get ice cream

               from this one lady. I will always remember playing with dirt outside, throwing it at each other


               until it was night and not caring if we got dirty.
