Ricardo lives just down the street from the school. He lives with his parents, older sister and brother and younger sister. Ricardo is sweet, most of the time! Last year was his first year in our school. He arrived not speaking very much, and what he did say was unintelligible. By Christmas he began speaking more and by the end of the year we were able to understand full sentences. He arrived at the beginning of this year with much more verbal ability. He is very active and full of energy but also loves to be held and hugged. As you can see from the picture, his smile warms the heart!
