My family 
 I come from a small family of five people including my parents, two younger brothers and I/me . My mother is a nurse and my father is a biologist . My parents go to work, but when they come home they join hands to do the household chores and teach all of us. We love our parents, too. We are very close-knit family. We always feel homesick whenever we go far. In fact, wherever you go, whatever you do, whoever you are; East or West; “home” is the best. There is no place like your “home”.
