We are happy to report that Veronica has now begun the Covid vaccination process! She turned 12 years old this week and finally became eligible to receive a vaccine (Pfizer) here in Guatemala. We are guessing these vaccines, as well as the Moderna ones we, Michael and Heather, received, are donated by the United States. We are very grateful for that!
On Friday, Michael and Veronica went to the local neighborhood elementary school and waited for a couple of hours in line amidst children running all around the area. The funniest moment was when one little boy came up to Michael, who was at least a foot or two taller than every adult there, and said, "¡Ya creciste!" (which translated means, "You've grown!") followed by the moms in line giggling.
