Childhood and all that it entails in a foreign country is not easy, but at least you have that taste of victory that you made it. Even though you didn't know what you wanted to be; at least you had a clear picture of what you wanted to do.
I don't have children, but my mom tells me over and over again that children always change your life for the better, I'm even curious! And what you say is absolutely true EVERYTHING changes with the arrival of children.
The phase came and went.
Sorry about this. Thankfully, you are able to not get upset and move on, truly your skin is tougher than I imagined at first.
Thank you for your kinds words. I'm sure that your mom is correct and hope you will experience that some day as well!
