Mi Amigo Manuel! -

This little kid saw us watching the flip cam and came over and put his arm around me. He loved seeing himself and his friends on video. I asked him his name and in Spanish, he started messin with me and telling me names that weren't his. I knew this because he kept looking at me and grinning. He was maybe 6 years old and couldn't help but mess with the one person in the room who knew the least Spanish....me. So I of course instantly fell in love with him, being that he was a 6 year old Mexican version of me. I am going to sponsor Manuel and check on him as often as possible. If I had the means, I would start the process of adopting him, bring him home and raise him as my own son.
