My Story

I am Maynor Rokael Pedro Ramon, and I fondly write this letter to you. I hope you are having a lot of success in everything you do. Before telling you about my life, I want you to know that my mom and I were glad to provide all this information to LW.  I am 14 years old, and I am enrolled in eighth grade at school. The most exciting experience I have had is celebrating my birthday. Last year, my parents bought a delicious cake for me. I am grateful to the Lord for giving me such a loving family. My parents have taught me that Jesus is my Heavenly Father. We like Holy Week because of the processions and carpets made of sawdust. They help us to remember all Jesus did for loving us. We attend the Catholic church in our town. Fortunately, my whole family is healthy. My father is a farmer and my mom is a housewife. I admire my oldest brother because he is working hard to reach his goals. I identify with him so much. Now, let me tell you about my best friend. His name is Miguel and I met him about eight years ago. We love playing soccer when we get together. Thank you so much for reading my letter!

Sincerely yours,

Maynor Rokael Pedro Ramon
