Visiting Mexico with Mom and Dad

I go to Mexico with my both parents to visit my grandparents

I stand outside with my mom looking at the different cultures around me

I look to see where I am at with the different colors and different lifestyles

Dad always tells me “this is how I grew up, this is where I am from and this is what I call home”


Me and Mom usually scared because we dont know the lifestyle 

Me and Mom usually trying to get signal to call my family from our home to see what they are doing or just to see if they are okay

Dad usually talks with other people that he hasnt seen in months and or years

Dad always says “this is how I grew up, this is where I am from and this is what I call home


Dad usually talks english everyone turns around and looks at him

People usually ask himsince when he learned english or does he speak it the correct way

Me and Mom talk english and everyone turns and looks our way 

Either thinking were talking about them or me and mom are up to something 

Dad always says “this is how I grew up, this is where I am from and this is what I call home”.


While being in Mexico you can tell its a way different culture and llifesyltle 

But I'll never forget dad saying “this is how I grew up, this is where I am from, this is what I call home”.
