What a day it was! My mom became an American citizen. She came to the US in 1999 September with an international scholarship program from her college. She only wanted to stay for those 18 months and then live her life back in Hungary. Life had different plans for her, specially from the moment when she and my dad met.
She has met the love of her life here, found a very supportive family and had me. Her cup is full ( or almost, only a job is missing).
While my mom was saying The Oath of Allegiance, she was thinking about the beginnings and also about Great Grandpa Metz who came many years ago before her. Now, our family can live here, freely, comfortably without too many worries. America is the greatest because it is the only country in the world where the differences are celebrated and supported.
My mom is happy and very proud to be an American citizen.
