We have been in the US since September 2014. When we just arrived in America, we lived in a small apartment with public bathrooms and kitchens in Powell Street in San Francisco. There was only one tiny window facing Powell Street. The four of us shared one worm-eaten mattress for a bed. But our children, my husband and I were enjoying the time as long as we stayed together. The environment in China-town in San Francisco was quite different from our home in China although It was crowded with Cantonese people. Every morning, we would look out and see the street packed with the various throngs such as the students,the office workers, the people who might shop for groceries,and so on. Living our tiny room, our children found ways to amuse themselves .For example they would run to the windowsill to watch for fire truck when they heard the siren.
