Miss Chiquitita

For the second year in a row, Kayla was chosen to represent her class in the school's annual Miss Chiquitita (Little Miss) contest. She didn't win this year, like she did last year, but she did enjoy participating in the event. Here she is being interviewed by one of the teachers and is seen in her "casual attire". She also got to walk down the runway in her "formal attire".

Swim Meet

Recently Kayla and Elena competed in their first official swim meet that was held at the pool where they receive lessons. 240 kids participated! In their heets, both girls won 3rd place! The pool where they swim is owned and run by a gold medal winner in the Latin American Olympics and a Guatemala swimmer who competed in the Athens olympics!

K&K at the Lake

Kayla is just about to finish second grade here in Guatemala. She has such a tender heart and loves people. Here she is with her Daddy in June, enjoying a beautiful day at Lake Atitlan in Guatemala. Recently we were asked to share her "story" with some friends of ours. With tears we recalled her rough first year of life, and now, at age 7, we watch this little girl so full of life, and marvel at God's goodness. We are so blessed to have her in our lives!
