My Story

It is a great pleasure for me to write you this letter and tell you a little about my family and me. My name is Melany Rosmeri, and I am 11 years old. Because I am young, my father is helping me with this letter. Thank God, I am in good health, and so is my family. I live with my parents who are responsible people. My father is the main provider, and he is working as a mason helper. He is the person with whom I identify most, and I love him because he takes advantage of his free time to play with me. My mother is a housewife, and she is always attentive to the family.

I am studying, and I am in 5^th grade this year.  I have a friend named Carla, and we like playing soccer at school; I met her three years ago. At the end of last year, we went to a touristic place called “Los Aposentos”, and it was an amazing experience for me; I enjoyed swimming there. I loved to spend that time with my family. Jesus is the center of my home. As a family, we attend Mount Basan, and we enjoy all our time there. I want to end this letter expressing to you my gratitude for reading my information. I pray God blesses you wherever you are.

Sincerely yours

Melany Rosmeri Yucute Lazaro
