My Story

Hello! I fondly greet you, hoping you are doing well wherever you are. My name is Franklin Isaac, and I want to share my latest news with you through this means. Before I continue with this, I want you to know that my father helped me to give all this information to a LW teacher. My family and I attend the Catholic Church in our village on Sundays. My father is Luis Alberto Pol Mendoza, and he is 37 years old. He makes a living as a mechanic. My mom is Martha Eliza Chingo Coj, and she is 34 years old. She works in one school in Zacualpa town as a janitor. Thankfully, my whole family and I am are in good health. Our main needs are groceries, especially corn and hygiene products like soap.

Now, I want you to know that I am 10 years old, and I attended school as a fourth grader this year. I prefer to receive face-to-face classes because I learn much better and have fun. Praise the Lord, my current school level is not demanding, and due to that, father did not have trouble covering my school supplies. I want to continue studying to accomplish my dreams. Some of them are to become a doctor and speak English. My favorite holiday is Christmas because of gifts. I like drinking banana shakes, and my favorite sport is soccer. When my birthday comes, I love having a delicious cake to celebrate with my family. I say goodbye to you for now, but I want you to know that LW is a blessing for me because I have received delicious food for free. See you later!

Cordiality yours,  

Franklin Isaac Pol Chingo
