Yessica helps

6/20

Picked Yessica up to spend the night at midnight and we prepped and painted. She, going into 6th grade just jabbered like a magpipe till 2 when we had finished 2 walls of the family room.

I've known her since 1st grade from biblioteca (the library). Her sister Brinanda have had friends over to camp out in the back yard and I took them to Big Sur camping. Some exposure to things they wouldn't normally have and things to do and for me a little "parenting" and a peek into a culture I only see the outside of. I went to her mom's baby shower....really different and interesting...there were more kids than mom's!

They now have a little sister Adrianna, now 2.

Their mom speaks only Spanish and it's been interesting to watch her grow up.

I was a chaperone for her class to SF Mission Delores last year.

We watched a movie till nearly 3 and finally passed out.

It's been so hot we have to paint in the morning or given my propensity to be a night owl, in the middle of the night.
