Lara’s article published in the Friend magazine

I know this is old news in internet time (March of this year), but I just think it is so cool that Lara’s article was published in the Friend.

Miguel’s New Primary (PDF link) tells the real-life story of Matthew (renamed Miguel) moving to a new primary and learning to adjust. The following is an excerpt from the story.

The first Sunday after Miguel moved to a new city, his mother took him to church. They went to meet his new Primary class. When they got to the classroom door, Miguel grabbed Mom’s hand. “She isn’t my teacher, Mom. Where is Sister Dominguez?”

Mom knelt to talk with Miguel. “We live in a different city now, and we are going to meet new friends—like your new Primary teacher.”

“I don’t want a new teacher,” Miguel said. “I want to go home to my old house and be with my old teacher.”

Congratulations, Lara and Matthew!
