Another Arrival (235850)

Today, we got the message that this card had been received. I was excited to see this since this was the three year old.

What was really nice was that in the response, she answered the questions that we had as well as left some messages in her home language:

Kiitos kortistasi!= Thank you for your card!
I like to watch "my programmes" E said.
And my favorite toy is one of many dogs (no real).
Parhain terveisin = Best wishes-E from Finland

We had asked what kind of shows she likes to watch, if you recall. I always find it interesting to see what children around the world are interested in. I also like to see what is popular to play with.

I think my favorite part of this response is that she included her language. I am far from one to understand any foreign language (I've work with predominately Spanish speakers for more than six years and have yet to pick anything up more than labeling objects with the children). But I still enjoy hearing new languages!

Off to request another address...
