New Friends

There is another family that lives with the Fickers. They are a mom, Nikolasa, and her three children, Kevin, Sylvia and Jessie. Kevin is 11, Sylvia is 9 and Jessie is 5. The girls and Samuel have played alot with Jessie and some with Sylvia. Caleb is just starting to get to know Kevin. They all three speak English because Nikolasa has lived here a long time. Her husband lives in San Andres but it is an abusive relationship. The Fickers took her in and gave her a job. She does all their laundry and helps with the cleaning. Leslie really needs the help and Nikolasa needed to be in a better place. The relationship has blessed both of them. Leslie has also taught her how to bake. She makes wonderful cookies! Here are a few pictures of the kids together.

This is Samuel, Jessie, Hannah and Grace on the trampoline.

After the soccer game, Leslie had a little birthday party for Jessie. She turned 6 last Sunday. We are hoping that the relationships will continue to grow and they will have lots more soccer games!
