Our 6 year old (soon to be 7 year old) is an easy going, adaptable child who loves to be around people. It is fun to watch her interact with the Kenyans around us because she is so natural and comfortable with them. She will just skip up to them and start talking. I never thought she was very friendly when we lived in the US, but she has really come out of her shell since we moved here. She likes to write stories, take care of our pets and dance in our yard.
Here is her interview.

being free to play outside

I miss my friends and grandparents.

Feel free to leave any questions you have for her in the comment section and she will be happy to answer them. I do try to protect the kids' privacy by not using their first names online, so I ask that you please do not use their names in your comments. Thanks!
Here is a funny question for her....How do Kenyans say Hello?
ReplyDeleteRascal reminds me of a cat I had when I was a little bit older than you; his name was Smokey Joe. I dressed him in doll clothes. Has Rascal modeled any of your doll clothes yet? I love you! Granbecky
ReplyDeleteKennedy would like to say "Hi" to her friend living in Kenya. What kind of music do people in Africa listen to? What's your favorite color? What does your school look like?
ReplyDeleteSeems that two of your children are living in different climates.
