Now a letter from Zenebu, such a precious girl. She wrote wrote on the How I Have Fun template. Again, like with many of my children, they all seem to think the children that I nanny for are my children. I have no idea how I'm going to explain that they aren't mine when I am done being their nanny. I may have to keep sending my kids updates and just pretend they are my kids. ;)
Zenebu is 6 years old and lives in Ethiopia. Her letter is dated July 7th, 2017.
