Once again before we start, I would like to share a song that goes back a couple years. If you remember the old name, Hilary Duff, you know that we all were obsessed with her when we were in fifth grade or so. I think this song relates to "Letting Go."
After a blast from our childhood, let's go back to Bay Ly's experiences. Le Ly finally found someone to take care of her. An American soldier named Ed was finally a person that genuinely cared for her. She was able to go to the United States to live there and raise her new family. On the last page of chapter thirteen, I found the final words to be the THEME of the novel. Those words are :"... your family is waiting"(Hayslip, 337). It was then that she was able to find a family. Basically, this whole novel is about family and how there is always someone out there that will take care of you. It could be an unexpected person who is watching over you. Speaking of someone watching out for you, it also reminds me of another Hilary Duff song that gives everyone goosebumps.
Thanks for reading!
