Dante

Dear Dante,
i just wanted to thank you for all you did for me while i was living with my grandparents. You were so funny! Trying to protect me all the time. Unfortunately you're shorter than me, and a lot lighter. i know there were times you kept me safe, and i didn't even realize till later. You were always watching out for me, and making sure i had everything i wanted. i remember when you brought some of you're kid's movies for me to borrow. How did you know i love Winnie the Pooh? Maybe it was a little young for a 17 year old, but i was missing home and it helped!
We don't speak the same language, but we managed to communicate ok. It was mostly pointing and sign language, but it worked for us. i remember trying to talk to you when it was just us in the car, that was hard! You helped me understand the money, it was all so different. You even helped me go thru the checkout line the first time i went to the store without my grandparents.
I can tell you really care about my grandparents, and that means a lot to me. You made my stay with them more enjoyable, and easier on both me and them, and i really appreciate that.
So thank you Dante!
Rachel
