As someone who is growing to learn more in my late 20's about my own immigrant father who I adore. This piece was incredibly touching to me, especially the part about seeing glimpses of their childlike self which I've realized has been so profound for me to bear witness to in learning more about my dad's life story. Thank you for your words!

I love to read every word and expression of your beautifully crafted writing! It is not only a well-written emotional tribute to your father and his battle as an immigrant family head but it is also about your discovery of his 'child-self 'which you penned as sweet as it was revealed to you!
