Having It All Coming To America From Mexico--1920

We left Mexico and moved to San Antonio. Apa couldn't find work, so he moved our family to Iowa where we worked in the fields that summer. When summer ended we thought we would move back to San Antonio. But Apa said we would go to Wisconsin to pick sugar beets. Finally the sugar beet harvest was almost done. Apa had some news one night. "The tannery in town needs workers," Apa said. "I'm going to work there. We will stay here one year." "But Apa ..." Isabel said. "My mind is made up," Apa said. "We will stay here through next summer. This is the best thing for our family." Apa turned and walked away. I saw the daggers in Isabel's eyes. Why couldn't anyone else see them?
