I have been here for 9 months. My dad works in the military. Sometimes he works really late but sometimes he gets off early. He even works on weekends. He works really hard. My dad also works at home. He fixes my mom’s car and his car. When he gets home, he cooks and plays with us. My family has been in Japan for about 4 years and 9 months. We have only stayed in one place for 3 years. My feelings as a military child are sad because my dad is mostly busy so we don’t get to play with him so much. But when we do we have lots of fun. My mom has a job too so they are both busy. But I have so much fun when I’m at home helping out by cleaning the house or if my parents are home, I help take care of my baby sister while they work on the computer or paperwork. I love my dad and mom.
