Yustin's updated photo

After I sponsored her I asked for her older picture. This is the one I got. I think she was about eight in this picture. I wonder why her smile is big.

Yustin Yaritza is actually my fifth Compassion Child. Her hair is braid and rapped in ribbons in this picture. I sponsored her because I had just gotten back from a missions trip to Ecuador and again I wanted to be able to talk to someone about my experiences.  I have three adopted African-American brothers so although I was not in the area where she is from I liked her dark skin.

I was really surprised when I saw her updated photo. I think she looks older or more mature in the old picture. But I like her blue shirt (Blue is my favorite color). She still seems to have ribbons in her hair. "Hand on the Hip" kind-of girl I guess.
