Time Flies

One of my two sponsor children have graduated from her program. And here I thought some random life circumstances had forced her to quit. Nope. The life circumstance that happened was that she grew up. She's now 17 (!). For some reason, I still think of her as perpetually 12.

From her letter (translated, of course):
"...I am very thankful to you for your help, love and all the good things you have rendered to me... I have developed in spiritual, social, physical and educational activities through your help. I am self supported only with you [sic] help. I shall never forget your help in my life. My parents conveyed their hearty thanks to you."

I'm getting teary-eyed just by typing this.

Good luck, formerly sponsored child!
