6 hours agoI grew up missing my grandfather. Now I'm making sure the 400-mile distance doesn't keep my kids from knowing theirs.
For my parents, it was a goldmine. People were starved of luxury for almost 30 years, and they were hungry to discover the world and everything it had to offer. I was 8 years old at the time, and I remember when my parents told my younger siblings and me that we would be moving. My heart sank. I just started primary school and had to leave my friends behind and start over again. The worst part, though, was that I had to leave my grandpa behind. I remember missing him so much, even though we visited him a couple of times a year.
