This is Genesis Esther de la Cruz Canil, and I fondly greet you. How are you doing? First, I want you to know that my mom and I gave all this information to LW just for you. Thankfully, we and our family are healthy. I am so happy because I will turn 5 years old in July. I still do not attend school because of my age. Therefore, I stay home and play with my ball. I have a lot of fun when my siblings play with me. I love my mom and dad so much. My dad makes a living by making tiles. I identify with him because he is a hardworking man. Although he does not earn much money, he does his best to support my siblings and me. I would like to be with him at work. On the other hand, my mom weaves typical clothes and embroiders napkins to help my dad with the expenses. My family and I are members of the Full Gospel Church. We like the Thanksgiving services a lot because they are special. I am younger, but I have learned so much about Jesus. I heard He is God’s son. I say goodbye to you now, but I send you many hugs. I hope to hear from you and your loved ones soon.
With much love,
Genesis Esther de la Cruz Canil
