Unfortunately, it took a horrible accident to change her 6 .Her best friend was seriously hurt in a car crash.

One night, when I was eight, my mother gently asked me a question I would never forget.

“Sweetie, my company wants to me but needs me to work in Brazil. This is like your teacher telling that you?ve done and allowing you to skip a grade(跳级), but you?ll have to your friends. Would you say yes to your teacher?” She gave me a hug and asked me to think about it. I was puzzled. The question kept me for the rest of the night I had said “yes” but for the first time, I realized the decisions adults had to make.

For almost four years, my mother would call us from Brazil every day. Every evening I?d wait for the phone to ring and then tell her every detail of my day. A phone call, however, could never replace her and it was difficult not to feel lonely at times.

During my fourth-grade Christmas break, we flew to Rio to visit her. Looking at her large apartment, I became how lonely my mother must have been in Brazil herself. It was then I started to appreciate the tough choices she had to make on family and work.

Back home, I myself that what my mother could do, I could, too. If she to live in Rio all by herself, I, too, could learn to be but achievable
