Dear mom,

Last night I cried because I missed my mom and I do now. I looked at these pictures to calm down. In the morning I got dressed and went to school. When I got there there was a bunch of stands that you could buy stuff in. There was one stand of soda. In the soda stand they took a plastic bag and poured the soda in the bag then they put a straw in it. And it looked like this: (another drawing). It cost about 5 pesos.

When we went to the store I saw like a little fake Barbie and it cost about $180 and at first I forgot that there was 9 pesos in a dollar and I thought , “Wow, this store charges a lot for a little fake Barbie”. But then I remembered that I was in Mexico and $1 equaled 9 pesos.
