My Story

Hello and greetings. I am Xhuljano presenting my updated story to you through the questions I am answering to the team of Adopt a Child Pogradec. I am here together with my mother who is also helping answering to some questions that are for our family.

I am doing well regarding health. I am 3 years old and my birthday is on September 16^th. I don’t have a favorite color since I love all colors. When I pick my car toys with which I pray, they are all blue, red, white, and I like all the colors that my toys contain. I also like to draw and use a lot of different colors. My future dream is to become a policeman. I like to be trained to become a strong boy and in good fit. I like to spend a lot of time running and playing outside in the road with my friends who are near. My mother brings me to the kindergarten every morning and I stay there till midday. I enjoy my time there learning and playing. Recently we will have walks as kindergarten class around the town and I love to spend time outside and of course, by the lake. I like to spend the rest of my day playing outside with my friends and when I am inside the house, my older brother is willing to play with me and he is my best brother because he is carrying for me when my mother is busy. His name is Antonio and he is 12 years old. I have another brother who is 8 years old and his name is Damjan. My brothers are both going to school and enjoy learning. They both prefer to study mathematics best. I like to help my mother when she cleans. I take a dry cloth and un dust the table, chairs and our furniture. I get usually a treat doing so and my mother busy for me chips or other sweets and candies. I like to sit and watch cartoons on television when my brothers finish studying.

We are six persons in our family. Our home is quite new and offers appropriated living conditions to us. Our house is two stories high because the family of my uncle and my family live in the same building. My father works as welder. He is a mechanic as well and has a full time job. My father has his own car that he uses for transportation as well as for his job. My mother is not working. She is yet too busy doing the housekeeping and carrying for us, children during the day. In the same time, she is carrying for both my grandparents who live with us. Her day is busy doing cooking, cleaning, washing, doing shopping, walking me to kindergarten, etc. My grandparents are both receiving small pensions from their previous jobs and they deliver their pensions to my parents who care to supply for their living needs. We live with low income and our needs are many. My brothers and I are registered in the sponsorship program of Adopt a Child and we benefit food packages, clothes as well as Biblical educations. My mother comes to the church services and she is also frequenting a Bible study for ladies on Saturdays. We are blessed to be part of the church and program in Pogradec. Thank you for your care and provision. God bless you richly.
