Miguelitto (from Janel)

Janel, an intern at La Aldea Infantil, introduces us to Miguel:
Miguel is accompanied in the Aldea by his older brother, Victor. The two have lots of fun with the other boys in house 2. Some of the boys are a few years older and do not always include the younger ones like Miguel, who is 7. One night after dinner, for English class, I made homemade word finds for the boys. The older ones loved this and raced to get done first. Miguel wanted to be included also. I gave him a word find and he was determined to finish it! It was well after the older boys had finished, but the smile on his face showed his satisfaction. Miguel is an active boy who loves to color and pull pranks. He races to be the first in the truck on the way to school so he can lock the others out. He loves to sit in the driver´s seat and act like he is driving. Everyday after lunch he practices his writing and is getting better everyday. Miguelitto participates in art class and loves to paint. Miguel is a kid who loves to laugh and have fun.
