Home is a family, it is a small homeland, from which love for one's native country begins. The family plays a big role in the life of every person.

Each person has relatives and close people who are always there, who can be trusted and who can be relied upon in any situation - these are members of his family. That is why the family plays such an important role in our lives.

There are five of us in the family: mom, dad, older sister, brother and me. We are very close-knit family. My older sister is twenty-two. She studies at the university and works. My brother is 12 years old and is in the 6th grade.

My parents work a lot. They are both doctors and by eight in the morning every day they leave for a shift at the clinic. Nevertheless, my mother always manages to cook a delicious breakfast for the whole family and sit at the table with us for a while to pay attention to everyone.

In the evening, our family also always gathers at the same table. We exchange impressions, sum up the past day, have dinner and drink tea with various desserts that dad usually buys after work to pamper us.

This is how everyday life goes in our family. We travel every weekend and holidays. It can be just a trip to the nearest entertainment center or a trip to the countryside.

My parents are kind, but rather strict in the upbringing of their children and grandchildren. They always give me, my sister and my brother good advice on how to live and share their life experiences.
