My Story

Hello! My full name is Yamileth Daniela Jerez Santos, and I am excited to share a little bit about my life with you. I am a healthy 11-year-old girl. I love going for long walks with my best friend, Darlin. Actually, she is my cousin. We have had fun and beautiful moments together, like when we enjoyed a picnic day with my youngest brother. We enjoyed it so much! About my education, let me tell you that I am enrolled in fourth grade again. I am so happy because Jesus is also my friend. I can learn so much about Him at my church. My family and I are members of the Catholic church in our town. We enjoy attending Mass because we can receive the Holy Eucharist.

I identify with my mom because she is loving and supportive. She is a great housewife and helps my siblings and me when we need it the most. My father works hard as a farmer to support our family. By God’s glory, none of my family is sick. To end this letter, I want you to know that we are grateful for being part of LW-Adopt A Child because of all the blessings we can receive, especially for the food. May God bless you richly for all you do through LW!

From the bottom of my heart,

Yamileth Daniela Jerez Santos
