Our Side of the Mountain
I would like to tell you about my life. My name is Mary. My family includes two sisters and I have two brothers. Both my parents live in Glace Bay. My husband, Jim, is a very good man. We have one son, his name is Milan. He is eight years old.
In the winter we go out to make snowmen, have snowball fights and go walking. Every weekend we watch family TV and movies.
In the summer we enjoy the warm weather. My son Milan likes to pick blueberries and wild flowers for me.
I am going to the Adult Learning School to get my education. This makes me feel better about myself. Jim helps me with homework and this gives me the support and encouragement to continue. Some day I would like to work with children. I want to be able to help my son with his homework. The other day Milan told us, “You are the best mommy and daddy ever!’ The best day of my life was meeting my husband and having our son. I am a very happy woman!
