raising children » help from parents

A story from

Carlota, my youngest of two daughters. She is 16 years old and even though she may look tough she is young and speaks like a child. She is secondary school now and plays basketball. I must thank my parents for helping me taking care of my children! It is not easy! I am alone and I travel a lot with my business. I am truly grateful.
