This was a different for my mom because unlike my dad, she has ALL her family in Mexico. Sadly 1-2 years ago both my grandma and grandpa died so sadly she wasn’t able to get her residency before they passed. But she was blessed to see her brothers and sisters after 25 years 🙏🏽 pic.twitter.com/nFvoNbhCUh
