I wanted Mami to pray for me

Maria

Hallo, my name is Maria. And I live with my four older brothers and one big sister in Germany. 

There’s a very nice swimming pool in our town. When we walk through our woods, it takes us 20 minutes to get there. We all know how to swim. I swim with my swimmies, and my big brother helps me.

One time when I was there, I stepped on a piece of glass and I cut my foot badly. The pool superintendent bandaged my foot. She thought I needed stitches. A friend of my big sister took me home.
