Fireworks

The Shiny colorful and touching sky fireworks on June 4th it was amazing when I saw them first time in Chicago. My husband’s parents invited us and some friends on the boat in Yacht Columbia. I couldn’t wait to see and to celebrate this day with Polish and American people. Before celebrating I prepared polish food for guest on the boat. We come there 6 pm I and remember was sunny beautiful day. When you looked around was a lot of people. When the guests come we were talking about American history, and waiting for fireworks. Finally when the fireworks come I felt like a child in a Disneyland. The sky was colorful of fireworks, furthermore I was thinking about my family in Poland that they don’t have chance to celebrate this nice day.

My life

My family is the most important thing in my life. Even if I can’t be with them physically I am with them spiritually. I am so lucky that I have my mother and my siblings. One thing that is so sad for me is that we are too far from each other. Therefore it is impossible to see my sister every day and how she looks, or feel. Also I don’t have any chance to drink coffee in the morning like we did every day. The simple things I miss a lot. Sometimes I feel alone even if my husband is with me. My family is like a fresh ear to my heart with no them I can’t be me. We communicate almost every day by telephone, or by skype. Even if we live too far from each other, my spirit, roots, and heart will be always in my country with my family.
