The Holliday to Hometown

Yesterday was my holiday. Because it was the public holiday, the school was off on that day that's why I could go to my hometown for visiting my family, which there were only my grandfather. Since my grandmother passed away, every member in my family are separated. There are only my grandfather and father who stay home now. My grandfather names Kouv Rous, 84, is the leader of the parent. Because he's, now day, very old and nobody stays with to take care him, my father has asked permission from his office for work off to look after.  Fortuanatley, my aunt name Kouv Bo [Menh] has forced herself by leaving her family then attend to join in this family.

I arrived home at 1: 30 pm. When I arrived, I say my grandfather was sleeping by laying his body with carpet covered. And my father was messag him. After that, I gave my respected to both of him. Then I put my bag on the bad. I had conversation with them. After the conversation finished, my father and I had lunch.  The great time for lunch, I was fall in sleep.

At 3:00 pm, I woke up. While I went to the bathing room, my father was putting the kettle on wood oven for boil water for my grandfather. He need warm water to be clean his body. I helped him to do it. We water our grandfather. For this action, I felt it was grateful and respectful to him.
In addition, the father got bathing already. Because I brought my computer to, I could take time to do my assignment of extra book. On hour and a half later, I completed it. Then I shut it down and kept it safe.




At the evening, I helped my aunt to take chemical fertilizer to see in field, which full of green crop rice at the back of my home. She mixed it for a basket and I took it for her then.




Time of dinner was on at 6:00 pm.  Father started to feed grandfather with period. He fed him as a father fed a child too. He took time carefully selection fish bone before feeding him. "Maybe I can't select all every bone", he said and smiled.


For this holiday that I had this month, It's worth for my life. Finlay, I prepared everything at night as well prepared because I need to leave hometown and had class at Phnom Penh. I left at 6:00 am. For my point of view, this holiday was the great for me, for I saw the actions that my father did for grandfather.
