Dreams of a Child for a Better Life

When I was a little girl, I used to dream of a better life. I wanted to be able to have amazing food. I wanted to live in a warm house and have warm clothes. I dreamed of living in a house where the wind doesn't blow through the walls. I dreamed that I wouldn't have to beg for food.

It was hard for me to sign the papers that said that Maria and Vitale, my brother and sister, were going to be adopted. I knew I was going to be sad. But I also knew that it was going to be ok. I dreamed that I was going to have a family when I was a little girl. I dreamed that I was going to have enough Shelter, food, love, education, Family and clothes.

When I was a little girl I dreamed that if I got sick, that doctors would help me get better, and that I would have someone to take care of me. I dreamed that one day I would go to America I never give up and I was brave to come to America. I believed that I would see my brothers and sisters because I had pictures of them and also I believed that I would see them for real I believed that I would have more sisters. I believed that I would meet the sisters that were born after me.

I thought Vitale was Denny my brother that lives in Kamas. I dreamed that Vitale was going to have a new family. I always knew that I was going to America I was 100% right that I could come to America.

I didn't believe the people that told me not to go to America because they would sell my organs. I never gave up and I was always brave. When I was in the orphanage they let me talk to Natasha on the phone. I told Natasha to never give up about go to America. I dreamed that I would see Natasha when I grew up. I told Natasha to come to America with me, and we would be together in happiness. And I dreamed that I was never going to lose her.

When I was a little girl I dreamed that I would be together with my family in America. I knew that when I went to America I would have Thanksgiving. God blessed my life because I got go to America. I am thankful for many things because I got to come to America. I am thankful for my sisters and brothers and family and love.

I am thankful that the leaves change, and nature and Beauty. It's hard for me that I get scared easily because I change to new homes all of the time. I learn how to get new homes. When I work hard it makes me happy. I dreamed that my brothers would teach me how to ride a bike and snowmobiling, and how to make blankets. When I am stuck, my family will help me. I dreamed that I would enjoy happiness when I went to America.

At first I only knew fear and anger in my life. I learned about it. Sometimes I get mad, upset, frustrated, disappointed, jealous, happy, proud, to work hard. I would like to amazing and content. I feel like for me I want to be excited! I am grateful that I came to America and was welcomed home. I am happy that I came home with my family, and I love it, to be with my sisters and brothers. I never gave up on them. I know I deserve a happy life, and I want to be calm when I have bad behaviors. I would love to be honest and never lie.
Everybody attention !!! Thank you so much for helping :)
