Isa

Isa's full name is Isabel, but she goes by Isa. Everyone at NPH knows her! She talks to everyone. Isa is always smiling and loves to joke around with everyone as well.

She and I have something huge in common: We love to sing. When I ate dinner with the kids in my section, I would always help her walk back down to the house. During that time we would always talk about life - and sing! Her favorite song (actually, pretty much the only song she ever sings) is "No Me Digas Que No" by Enrique Iglesias. So, she taught me the words and we always sang it together.

I was so proud of her when she sang that song in front of everyone, by herself, at the Valentine's Day talent show! It was really cute.

Isa and I became very close. She was one of the only kids in my section who could have an actual conversation, so we talked a lot. She asked me questions about myself and confided in me. I didn't have her in speech and language intervention, but she is one of my best friends at NPH. I especially loved talking with her when I read to them before bed; that was such great bonding time. Isabel is incredibly sweet and will always be in my heart!
