Dear Sponsor Kayla,
I write on behalf of Lenin. He wants to thank you for the letter you sent. He also thanks you for the pages of the car and the motorbike. He wants to tell you that he is well. He says that he likes to be an older brother and he takes care of his younger siblings. He says that it is cold in Peru now and he gets warm when he goes to sleep. He wants to know if you prefer cold or hot weather. He would like you to pray for God to take care of his family. He says goodbye with love.

We have reached the last letter of the post, which is a letter from Nicol. She wrote her letter on the About Me template and then included a long letter at the end. Nicol's letters are always extra special, with either a long message or extra photos. She's a special girl.
Nicol is 5 years old, is from Colombia, and wrote this letter on May 2nd, 2018.
________________________________________________________________________________
1. My name means: Crowned Woman
2. I am the 2nd child in my family.
3. I am 116 cm tall.
4. The color of my hair is: Brown
5. The color of my eyes are: Brown
6. One thing I do really well is: Homework
7. Things I like to do are: Playing, drawing, and painting
Hello Dear Kayla,
Nicol and her family thank you for looking out for her and for sharing your anecdotes. This is Nicol's teacher writing to you on her behalf because she can't do it yet. She says her mom reads your letters to her and she would like to meet you someday. As she is studying, she spends most of her time doing homework. She gives you a verse; Isaiah 60:22. She is learning about vowels and numbers. Regarding your question, she says she's in good health. She had a happy Christmas with her family. During that time, the project had a party where they gave presents to the children. She says she got a doll that is as big as her. She also spent time with her family, sharing presents. Also, she accepted Jesus in her heart because he died on the cross to save us all. Nicol tells you Jonah's story in the following way: Jonah got in the boat and God made the waters move fast. Jonah was swallowed by a whale. Then he prays for Jesus to forgive him and take him out of the whale. He is placed on the beach and he keeps his promise of going to Niveah. She sends you blessings. May God bless you. Many kisses.
