I didn't mind before why we were always moving places because what matters to me is we're happy. We may not be complete, but at least we are happy.

This place has taught me how to swim, race go-karts, enjoy simple things, and most importantly, value my friends and family. Apart from the things I have said, it is extremely significant to me because it has strengthened my walk with the Lord. In my early years, I would spend my...
