Journey to America
The word America has been a dream to me since I heard about its freedom. Finally, today , I start my long journey. Natalia, my little sister by a year, and I have packed four outfits each, silverware, photos of our family and friends and other small objects that mean a lot to us. We hope to reach America safely one days from now. I cannot wait to see the Statue of liberty. Freedom is scarce in my homeland, Ukraine, and just the thought makes me cry.

Christmas has been different without you and so has life with out you for the last few days.
