María Luisa Bonilla Velázquez
5 years old / Kindergarten / Yessenia’s daughter.
She enjoys going to kindergarten and painting.
They currently live in a house owned by one of Yessenia's aunts, who gave them permission to stay there. The house is in poor condition, and their own land has also deteriorated due to rainwater leakage.
They feel very fortunate because the new house is a true blessing from God in their lives, as she could not afford to build a house on her own, especially with her husband not being with her. She is very grateful to God and to the people who have donated for their new home.
