Here is a post from nine years ago that seems relevant after my last post:

Mondays and Tuesdays for Cellpic Sunday

On Monday and Tuesday mornings, I teach these four charming students English. They are Eduardo, Pasiano’s son, Marie Jose and Alejandra, Yolanda’s nieces and Yoli, Yolanda’s daughter. So, instead of Cellpic Sunday, I guess these are my Cellpic Monday and Tuesday shots!

Nine years ago, Alejandra was one of the kids in a summer camp we threw for kids. Now she has two kids of her own! Here’s a picture of her way back then at age 12.

And  a picture of Yoli 9 years ago:

I didn’t meet Marie Jose until a year ago, but here she is
at her confirmation celebration one year ago:

And here is Eduardo ten years ago at the age of 4, coloring on
my terrace while his dad was making my garden beautiful:

 

My life is enriched by the wonderful young people of Mexico.
