A Day Through Cristhian’s Eyes

cristhian

Hello, everyone – I’m Cristhian, and I am 14 years old! I live with my mom and many siblings in Honduras, and I love playing soccer with my friends, listening to music, and helping my mom with washing the dishes. One day I would like to be a chef so that I can make exotic dishes. Welcome to a day in my ilfe!

My brother and I attend the activities at the Center together. This is one of the games we play with the other children in my age group.

This is the Child Development Center. I have been coming here twice a week since I was 8 years old. When I’m here we do our homework, make new friends, have devotional time, and overall just have lots of fun.

Meet Saul! He is my cousin, and he lives with me, my mom, and my 3 brothers. We are the same age, so we do everything together. He is my best friend!

This is my selfie when I was standing in my living room. I took this photo because I love soccer and I am wearing the shirt of my favorite team – Brazil.

When I am home, I like to help my mom with the chores around the house. All of us usually take turns helping, and today was my day. My mom took the photos of me helping her cook and cleaning the kitchen.

One of my favorite lessons to learn in school is how to build different things. This is one of the projects I made…it’s a little bench! I’ve done several other projects as well, and I am grateful to learn this!

This is the front of my house where I live. My cousin is standing there too, but I didn’t know he was going to be in the photo! Ha Ha!

cristhians-laundry

It takes me about 30 minutes to walk to school every day. Because of the walk through town, I have to wash my school uniform every day to keep without dust and dirt all over it. I’m currently in the 9th grade, and my hope is to go to university and study engineering.

This is my school where I have attended for 3 years. My favorite class to go to is called Technology, which is the class where I learned to make the bench.


Thank you for sharing your day with us, Cristhian! You are an incredibly talented, smart, and caring boy who will continue to grow into a strong leader!
