Hello counselor, I am 5 years old and today is my first day in kindergarten, its cold outside and my clothes aren’t completely dry because we don’t have a washer or dryer at home. I’m excited to make friends, they all smell like bubble gum and flavored color markers! Me and my parents and my newborn baby brother just moved from Mexico, we are all staying in a 5 ft by 4ft room with a space heater, I stop drinking water by 6 pm because it has been snowing and its cold to go pee in our porta john.
