I remember the days when I was still a little girl. When the New Year cam, my mother used to tell me not to cry, she used to take me to the market and buy new clothes for me, she used to make sticky rice square cakes and cook them all night. She used to go to the flower market to buy some fresh flowers. My father used to pain the walls and redecorate the house and he used to help my mom with housework.
