A Mother's Love

        I remember asking my mom why. My mother said, "You will understand why when you are a bit older." I was 6 years old when my mother told me the news. I was devastated when I found out that my mother was leaving me behind to go to U.S.A.  I remember waiting for my mom at the airport I was hoping that it was a joke and that my mother would come back  home sometime soon, but there was no sign of my her. I started to cry when I realized that my mother wasn't coming back. I felt betrayed and abandoned.

My life wasn't that great before my mom left but i was happy. My life got a lot better after my mom left:.She sent money back home, because of it I was able to go to a better school, had a better clothes to wear and had the best food to eat. I wasn't happy even though I had everything I ever wanted, because my mother wasn't with me.

Six years later, I was excited to find out that my mother will bring me to the U.S.A. I was nervous and happy at the same time while waiting for my mom at the airport.  When my mom saw me she came running and gave me a big hug, she held me like I was coming a part. We were both crying while holding each other.

I saw how happy my mother was. She told me that leaving me behind was one of the hardest things she ever had to do. I realized that she sacrificed a lot for my happiness. I Finally realized what my mother meant when she said "You will understand why I had to leave when you get older."

                                                                                 

Its hard to understand why people do things without knowing their motives.
