Also on Saturday, I received letters from BOTH my sponsored children who live in Guayaquil, Ecuador! First I will share the letter Egda wrote. Egda is a little girl who just turned seven years old in late June. I've already gotten a Welcome letter from her. This letter is in response to the birthday card I sent her, in which I included some stickers and a short letter.
Egda says:
Hola Nicole [lastname]!
I greet you with much affection also I wish you are in good health. My family and I are in good health, too. I thank you so much for the card, letter and stickers. I like to play so much during the recess time. The subjects that I like the most are math and language. Here we have a warm weather and I like to go out for a walk together with my friends at afternoon. I love to draw so much. I deeply thank you for being a wonderful sponsor! I say goodbye with a big hug,
Egda Karina P. V.
She wrote herself this time- in cursive that's impressive for a just-turned-seven-year-old. I was expecting her letter to be written by a CI employee or volunteer, because her Welcome letter was written by a CI employee or a social worker. I thought maybe she had some delays, or started school late, and so hadn't learned to write yet. So I was extra excited and happy to see that my Egda can not only write, but write in cursive that's, frankly, better than my husband's. (Even he said so!)
