One day I know I will go to Ireland becasuse my Dad has been talking about going there for years. He wants to go because he is one hundred percent Irish and thats where his ancestors came from. His Grandmother moved from Ireland to here in America when she was sixteen years old. She came over in a boat. Right now my Dad is trying to have citizenship in Ireland. Even though he doesnt live there or he never been there doesnt mean he can’t. Where not moving or going to live there or anything like that we just want to go for vacation. He is trying to get dual citizenship because of a pride thing not anything else. I know he really wants to go and that makes me want to go because me and him are really into history. I love to learn stuff about history and my ancestors so it would be cool to see where they lived before they came over to the United States. Another place I want go is the University of Notre Dame’s football stadium because thats mine and his favorite college football team. He has been to all of his favorite pro sport teams but never to Notre Dame which I think is suprising because he loves them. I want to see a football game with him. I know both those things are really special to him and because of that, they became special for me and I think he deserves to go to both.

Dear Bobby,
I bet you will have a wonderful time when you and your dad eventually get to Ireland. I went about 15 years ago with friends. One friend, had a grandmother and an uncle there. We made an effort to see them and it was so worth it. Everyone in the little village was happy to see my friend,
Have you traveled much in this country? What states have you visited?
Your friend,
Mrs. Y♥llis
