My daughters: The author and the hobo

Kyndal had an experience a few years ago that has really stood out to her.  We were in Salt Lake City and going to visit at Temple Square.  There was a lady that was on the corner and Kyndal vividly remembers her sign that she had no food or water and that she was homeless. Kyndal felt sad for her and she offered some of the food that we had brought with us.  She felt so happy that she was able to do this and has remembered it over these years.  One day she wanted to publish a newspaper article and chose to write about this experience.  She wrote the story out beautifully and we decided to act out pictures to go with it.  It was so funny for Elliette to play this sad homeless person.  They often dress up in huge winter clothes like this and look like little hobo children, so I knew she could pull it off.  The pictures went really well with her article and looked like a professional little newspaper.  It was a fun project!  Here is our re-enactment.

It was so hard for Elliette to keep a sad face.  It made her crack up and we all started laughing.  Trying to be sad is really hard.  It was so cute!
