I chose to sponsor a child through Children International. Her name is Meilis and she lives in Barranquilla, Columbia. I just got a letter from her today and I really want to write a return letter. Unfortunately, I have no experience writing anything to children. Anyone here ever been in my situation, and can give me ideas of what to write about?

BTW, if I write out a letter, could someone translate it into Spanish for me?

Dear Sponsor Child:

Today i snorgled my bun bun. Tomorrow i might head to the club and try to talk to a girl. After that... i'm gonna try to figure out my taxes. Hopefully i don't get ass-raped by the IRS when i do it wrong, so i can continue to sponsor you.

How was your day?

Many Snorgles.

Ask her if she collects stuffed animals like yourself and that you'll make one for her to snorgle with.

Lyrics from a great song. They'll never know you didn't write them. Or a poem.

Hi,

I just had dinner, or half a dinner actually. I had a large pizza with everything and then some ice cream. But I bought too much and ended up throwing half of it away. What did you have for dinner?

You'd actually trust ATOT to translate something for you into Spanish without completely distorting/replacing your meaning?
