Today my grandmother turned 76 years old, if I’m not mistaken. There is a 12 hrs difference so I called her last night to wish her a happy birthday. I got so homesick hearing everybody talking in the background, I miss my grandparents so much. Ever since my grandparents have been getting older we always make it a point to celebrate there birthdays by coming together as a whole family. Its more like a family reunion twice a year, on January for my grandpa and March for my grandma. I got to talk to my mom and she missed me so much and almost begged for me and Kaitlyn to come home and visit her. She wants to hold me in her arms so bad and finally be able to meet her first grandchild. I almost cried when i heard the longing in her voice. After almost 3o minutes of talking and being passed from one person to another I called Ralph and told him what my mother and I talked about. Ralph felt bad that I could not go home and  visit my mom. When we hang-up he immediately went online while he was at work to check on airfares. He called me back again and told me that maybe we could make arrangement  for me and Kaitlyn to go back home. As much as I would love to go home, its not practical at this time. We need all the money we can get. I know in my heart that one day soon I will be able to visit home and see my loved one again. I don’t know when but soon.
