Introducing....






Meet Gabriel!!  He is my new correspondent from Compassion!  Isn't he cute?

Gabriel is 6 and is in kindergarten, where he's doing average.  He helps his family by running errands and caring for his younger siblings.  In his spare time, he enjoys swimming, drawing, and bicycling!  His mom is sometimes employed as a freelancer, and his dad works for a non-government organization.

  1. What a cutie! Congrats! : )
    Just out of curiosity, about how long did it take you to get Gabriel after submitting a request? I've been waiting for over a month for a new correspondence kid! I think they have a bit of a backlog. : )

    1. Thanks! I do have a *Slight* bias towards Indonesia too! It's such a great country, and my precious Aprila (my first ever kiddo!) is from there :)
