House on Emerald street BY BLANCA ISLAS

We didn’t always live on Emerald Street. Before that we lived on 17th and Wright Street when we moved to that house I thought I was in my dream house that I though I’ll never live in but as soon as our family became bigger we moved. Before the dream house we lived in an apartment located in Lyon Street. We don’t move as that much but as soon as we got to Emerald Street we were nine my mom, dad, Ruby, Jocelyn, Yaneli, Jesus, Melanie, Brisa, and me.
The house on Emerald Street is now ours the fifty-thousand dollars we got by selling our old hours we paid our house on Emerald Street cash. My mom’s family has always critized us just because we’re a big family and we always struggle for money just because my dad can’t find a good job just because he doesn’t have papers same for my mom.
But our house on Emerald Street is not that big it has three rooms and two restrooms. I share with my sister Yaneli, my sister Ruby shares with my sister Jocelyn, my mom sleeps with my little sister Melanie, and my dad sleeps in the living room with Jesus and Brisa. The house on Emerald Street had been the best house ever. The house my parents struggled through just to have a hose and at least a plate to each a day, the house on emerald street is really significant to our family.
