When my dad was born my grandpa gave my dad his necklace of jesus, to protect him and make his life goes to a nice direction. My dad grew older. As time when forward my dad got smarter and wiser, he met a girl that he really liked in school, she liked him too and they dated for a while until they got married at age 18. Then a year later I was in my mom belly and needed 9 months until I was born, during that time my mom and dad went to the U.S.A. For me and my brothers to have a better life than them. They ran and hid from the cops for 4 days until they got over the border, my mom and dad stayed in my aunt house for months until they got a job and got on their feet. Later on the year my dad and mom got a job and bought a house and then my second brother was born, i loved him with all my heart. Fast forward 2 more years my two brother were born and I turn 10. That was the day when my dad took off the necklace and gave it to me so jesus can give me safety and have a smooth life, he gave me that necklace 4 years ago and now i’m 14, one day I will do the same thing and give the necklace to someone important.
