Lost Dog, Found!



Hello, fellow bloggers! Today Blake, Marisol, and I were exploring my yard. Before you ask, Marisol is a very great friend and her and Blake get along ever so well. Marisol is learning English very quickly, thanks to my *sigh*... awesome language skills, haha! :) Anywho, I was walking in my new Liberty Jane monkey flats. I was so exited when I got them! They have Paul Frank monkeys all over them. They go perfect with my butterfly dress! Hooray for "A"s! :D
As we were walking, the dog I found about two months ago came running behind us. "MIKKI!!!!!!!" Screamed Marisol. "Mikki?" (Pronounced "Me-key") Marisol ran up to the dog called 'Mikki' and gave her a great big hug. haha! If you guessed the dog was Marisol's,
you were correct! :) Perro means dog in Spanish. If you are wondering how the dog is her's, Marisol moved here about 2 months ago. This is how she lost the dog... (She told me in Spanish, maybe you can translate it? Good luck, detectives!)

"¡Oh, mi estimado Mikki está de vuelta! Estoy tan s
alieron! Gracias por mantener su seguro, pensé que estaba perdido par
a siempre! :( Todo comenzó cuando nos mu
damos aquí, me abrió la puerta a nuestro coche y fuera saltó Sandra. Mi
kki era tan asustados que se echó a correr en el bosque. Yo estaba llorando como
yo corrí después de su chirriar "Mikki! Come back!" Como YO temía, ella se había ido...!"

Everyone is seemingly happy! Marisol found Mikki, I got my shoes, and... oh, I forgot to tell you... BLAKE IS GOING TO NEW YORK! :D

(The Crazy Doll Lady - Remember I never asked my mom and had to forfeit the contest? Sorry, I can not receive the shoes. Thanks anyway!)

Exchange Student From Mexico

Hey, everyone! Emmi Dean, here. Today we got a new exchange student from Chihuahua, Mexico! I think her name is Marisol. I am going to be working with her starting next week; I am going to help her learn a little bit of english. I can fluently speak French, English, Spanish, and Latin. I have helped exchange students in the past, too. Knowing other languages can help in detective situations, which reminds me that Jess needs some detective work? I am happy to help :) Marisol has been living here in American Girl Town for a month or two, she just hasn't started school yet. I wonder why I haven't seen her around town?
Anyway, I think that Marisol is beautiful! I love her curls and her dazzling brown eyes. I wish I could help sooner, she is so confused! She has asked a few people for help, but they cant understand her poorly spoken English under her thick Latino accent. Ms. Hermando says that it is a hard task to teach english to spanish! I think it will be no big deal.
I also saw Marisol in the hallway today and got a picture of her with my phone. She keeps wandering saying "Perro! Perro!" Now if I only knew what that meant! Time for some detective skills!
