One person who represents my immigration experience is my dad. My dad is strong and he is tall. The last time I saw my dad, I was in Puerto Rico when I was born. I got never to see him after I was in the hospital. My mom and my dad were there. Then, I moved to the United States because I wanted to start a new life and I wanted to go to school. My dad is my hero because I remember him from when I was little. My dad not come with me to the United States,  but I think about him a lot and I miss  him. Even though I lost someone important that I miss a lot, I carry him with me and I think about him. Sometimes I cry about him. He will always be my hero. #mydad #myhero #my family
