Andres and Angela

One of the highlights of going home was being able to spend time with my little brother Andres and our little neighbor from Guatemala Angela. She came to Canada to learn English... to add to her already large repertoire of languages: Spanish AND French~ she's a very sweet and talented young lady. The last time that they were together, Andres was 8 and Angela was 11. Now, they're 15 and 18 and I wondered how they would get along for it's been a long time since they last played together as kids. Conclusion: Time has not gone bye between them. They're still as good of friends as they were 7 years ago! It's amazing to watch. Between the "I'm going to kill you" and a lot of "secrets" between them and I mean... A LOT of "secrets" that they wouldn't even let me in on... it was very endearing to see Andres try so hard to speak in Spanish and so sweet to see Angela tease him about her sister Maite (ie Andres's "childhood girlfriend" according to all of our parents). They were so much fun. When I said: "Hey, let me take a NICE picture of the two of you so that Angela can take it back to show her parents"... this is what they came up with: Then... FINALLY, a picture that can make any old sister proud :) Los extrano mucho muchachitos! Estoy ansiosa de verlos de nuevo~
