I have a big and friendly family . My first family is my parents and my sister and brother . My second family is my husband , my son , and daughter . They are all an important part of my life . My husband and kids live with me in DC . My parents and siblings live in Tashkent , Uzbekistan . I ’ m close with my sister because we grew up together and we know all about each other . She is so kind . Our kids have a good relationship . An important value for me is caring for each other .
The last time I saw my family was seven months ago in my home country Uzbekistan . I miss them so much . When I lived in Tashkent we used to meet every Sunday at my parents ’ home , get together with the whole family for dinner and eat our traditional food , pilaf . I support my family emotionally . I call them every day . I have a really good relationship with my family . In conclusion , family is more than we can imagine .
