Ambiolix is one of our preschool students. He's so little! His mom is Evelina; a wonderful, hardworking single mom (her husband died suddenly about 14 months ago) who wants to learn English and always has a sweet smile on my face (she's the one who gave me cornrows a few posts back). He doesn't talk too often. He's missing his front 2 teeth (pulled by dentist because they were rotting) and has about 4 other rotting teeth in his mouth. He calls me Lubi (Robin here sounds like Row-been and is sometimes shorten to Rubi because Robin is too difficult) because he is Haitian and therefore switches the 'l' and the 'r' sound...I think it's precious! Today Cara and I went to spend some time in Chichigua, just sitting around, hanging out. After about 45 minutes, Ambiolix come running out of his house with the most precious hat on! Here are some pictures of my little Ambiolix:
Estiven has huge ears, a wide nose, and a big smile! He recently has a little accident with a bicycle and has a wound on his foot. Cara Jane has been trying to help it heal but it's difficult. She's cleans it and wraps it but an hour or 2 after arriving back to Chichigua, the bandage has fallen off and the wound is full of dirt! Today when we arrived the bandage was still on but fell off about half an hour later. He then began hopping on one foot to keep the wound off the dirt. Cara decided to look for a walking stick for him to help him keep his foot off the ground. Here's the result:
Estiven already looks like an old man and with the walking stick he looks even more so! I know that his right ear looks strange, but fear not! His ears are so big that he can tuck them in. He gets a kick out of tucking in his ears!
