I was born in New Amsterdam. My parents migrated from Holland in the Netherlands. They came on a ship with only about twenty people. There were five families. They did not like each other so they stayed away from each other. They managed to survive. They were on the boat and they were running out of food. One of the families ended up dying. After a month they made it. They started building their houses. It was hard at first because they did not have all the seeds to grow crops. They had to find seeds on their own and deal with what they had.

I was born in 1650 after my parents had been here 25 years. I am a 14-year old girl who cares for animals and cares so much about the earth. I look up to my moeder for help when I need it. My vader passed away sadly from getting trampled by a bear and not making it. I am a nice and sweet humble girl and try not to ask for things I don’t need.
