I was so excited when I learned that we would be meeting with Desi again during our trip in November. I first met Desi during our spring trip – he was the last kid I saw that trip and he left quite an impression. He was so fun and animated when he answered my questions, and so funny! I was practically crying from laughing so hard! So, needless to say, I was looking forward to spending more time with him.
And sweet Desi did not disappoint – he came in the room, saw me and ran to give me a big hug! Heart melting! He was happy to answer all of my questions again – and even answered in English when he could. He told me that it was fun answering my questions. When I asked him what makes him happy, he shared about going to the US as part of a summer hosting camp a few years ago. He said he wants to live in the US!
Desi is learning magic and was very proud to show us a trick where he made an eraser disappear. I can picture Desi preforming in talent shows, and possibly even growing up to be an actor, or maybe a professional magician! He has that special “spark” – this is one amazing boy.
Desi is 9 years old and has no medical needs. He would bring so much joy, fun, and adventure to a family. Could he be your son? Please emailmary.chapman@gladney.org for more info on Desi!
