On Saturday we had our first "outing" as sisters.
Of course she is not "my blood" sister, but for a year, thanks to the mentor program of "Big Brothers & Big Sisters of the Cayman Islands", we get to spend a few hours together every week, and build up a relationship that we both, but specially her can benefit from.
So, on Sat. we visited The Pirates Caves, where they have [of course] caves as well as a small petting zoo.
It was a great place to start getting to know each other and to be around animals, which we both love.
Yanique is a very nice, intelligent and friendly girl, she is also very well mannered and fun. Her love for animals showed me that she is also a very caring and sensitive person.
Will share more pictures of the petting zoo tomorrow!
Hope everybody had a nice weekend, just as I did.
Now, enjoy the week!!!

She looks lovely, and it sounds like you had a perfect first "outing" :-) It´s a great initiative you have taken, to share some of your time and life with someone, who needs that kind of warming attention, that you offer. And I am sure you will both benefit from it.
I had a lovely weekend, beginning to write the first christmascard and decorating the house with even more christmas decos. It´s very stormy and cold here at the moment, but I managed to get 15 minutes sunshine on a quick walk! Have a lovely week! :-))
Gives me the warm fuzzies, to see you so happy.
She looks like such a sweet girl! I think it's so wonderful that you're taking the time to open your heart to a special child like her. You're both very lucky. :)
What a great way to share your time and one that she will NEVER forget. Thank you so much for sharing that we can all make a difference if we are willing to take a first step!
Love and Hugs~ Kat
