Day 2 - Visiting with Francisco!

Today has been a very busy day with Franciso and his family. First of all I want to share that Francisco is the sweetest little boy. He can be very serious and loves to share his things with his siblings and he has a very energetic side too!

First I was picked at the regular time and we were told that Francisco and his mom were waiting at the community center. So we drove straight there and he was sitting, looking very shy and holding his ID badge. Franciso is very thin, it is very noticeable and he is very small for his age. Of course he did not know me so I introduced myself to him and to his mother and and asked if he understood that he was sponsored by a group of sponsors. He said that he did and we looked at the beautiful collage of sponsors that he really liked. We went over each sponsor's name and country and also located his country and some of the sponsors' countries on the globe. This was a little hard for him to understand but he liked the globe. Gabriel read the letters from Elen and Barbara and I also showed him my photos.

After this he received his gifts and loved all of them. He really liked a little stuffed bear from Ellen and dressed up in his costume that Barbara sent. He loved it and looked so cute! I took photos of it and will post later. Another lady from the center came in and took photos of Francisco and me for a publication and then suddenly we had to leave the room because they needed the room for an important meeting. In the rush, I forgot to take photos of Franciso with the sponsor collage and with Ellen's bear.
