Recently a boy, who has a crush on Annabelle, told another girl Ava Mae was ugly and Annabelle was beautiful. Annabelle firmly told him, "Mi hermana es fea, yo soy fea. Yo soy bonita, mi hermana es bonita." Translated in English as, "if my sister is ugly, then I am ugly, if I am beautiful then my sister is beautiful."
Annabelle is probably the child I was least concerned about transitioning to Guatemala. When we stayed in Guatemala for a month two years ago she picked up Spanish rather quickly and school has been a great place for her to deepen her understanding of it. She makes friends easily but she does have one special friend in the states that she misses mightily. I strongly believe they will pick up their friendship right away when they reunite.
I am pretty sure she is comforting Pearl here. Annabelle is going to be an amazing mama one day!
Queen of the selfies...
Enjoying a festival at school!
Wednesdays are pretty special for us because the fruit truck guys come. Annabelle helps me translate. She's fantastic!
Annabelle really enjoys going to the villages with daddy and helping him
build.
She's a firecracker whether she's working or playing!
