Picture of Great-Grandparents

It was bedtime and my grandpa was reading, a book that talked about family history. I asked my grandpa, about our family history, and from his wallet, he pulled a picture that showed his parents, which made them my great-grandparents.While, I was looking at the picture, my grandpa told me, how loving they were and how much family was important to them. My grandpa, also told me their love for each other, inspired him from such a young age, and it was very beautiful. Life in India, was really fun, especially being from a small village and having family around all the time, said my grandpa. He also said, they committed their life for their kids, and worked hard to give them the best life possible and new opportunities.Thats how I came to America and started life here, and I was able to bring my parents and kids and that's how we are here today, said my grandpa joyfully.
