Hello I’m Eliana, I am 6 years old and I live in Mutata-Colombia.
I’m now in 1st grade. What I like the most about school is that I get to learn a lot of new things and I also get to play with my friends during recess! In my free time I like to watch cartoons on TV, I laugh out loud because they are very funny!
I’m so happy because I’ve had two different surgeries to solve my problem of Cleft Lip and Split Palate and I’ve been recovering very well. Now I can communicate easily and smile to show how happy I am, something I couldn’t do before. But guess what? I had never stopped smiling on the inside!
My family has supported me a lot in this. My speaking and pronunciation are getting better. I feel like the most beautiful princess of my region, and this is all because of your huge heart and kindness.
My parents have always taught me that it is important to love God and keep him in our hearts. Every night we pray together and we go to church on Sunday to thank God for everything he has given to us.
Thank you for giving me the chance to smile and shine!
