My name's An, and I live in Cần Thơ. My family used to live in a cottage
in Cà Mau.We used to live near my grandparents, and I'd walk to their
house after school with my sister and wait for my parents to come home.
I always had a good time while I was there. I have many cousins, and we
used to play lots of games at my grandparents' house. Sometimes, we'd go
fishing, too. After that, we'd bring some fish to my grandma. She would
fry or grill the fish. My grandpa used to make pottery. He'd let us play
with the clay and try to teach us how to make clay pots. I was really bad
at it and couldn't make anything that looked like a pot. My sister was
better and made some small pots for us. Sometimes, we'd climb one of
the trees around my grandparents' house and sit there looking at the rice
fields, the river, and the clouds. Or we'd walk out to the fields and sketch
the country.Those afternoons at my grandparents' home are some of my
favorite memories. My grandparents don't live there anymore, and
sometimes I miss their old house in the country.
