Something Interesting

     Want to know something interesting and unique about me? I am actually half British on my mom's side of the family. My mother was born in Essex, England along with my Grandmother. My Grandmother lived in England for about thirty-five years, my mother only three years. When my mom moved here, along with her two brothers, a lot of the family traditions stayed the same. We still celebrate Boxing Day, a British holiday, as well as drink tea whenever my sister and I are at my Grandmother's house. Since one side of my family is from another country, I definitely learned some different family values. Growing up my Grandmother always had my sister and I set the table for lunch and dinner, we always had to clean our own dishes and offer to take an adults dish as well. This showed us a lot of responsibility in a lot stronger way. The house was strict but in a good, impactful way. I carry out these same responsibilities even to this day.
