Cynthia (my oldest child) has an immigration project.
Her "immigrant" is Kristi Yamaguchi. She is happy to be reporting about her is just that she is a second generation of immigrants. Cyn feels that she needed a person that traveled from their native country and establish their first generation after them.
For a class project, Cynthia had to fill up a pillowcase with objects that will help the immigrant in a new land, such as a picture of your family, a game to stay busy while traveling, a dictionary to learn your new language.
My hope is that she learns that we are blessed. Even though these are hard times we are living, that she is able to find compassion in the stories that her teacher is talking about immigrants in her class.
