"Will you be my neighbor?"

It's been great getting to know Jiro since I came to stay with Ate Diday.
He attends preparatory grade at Blessed Hope Christian School in Tanay.
When I first met Jiro, I often spoke to him in English.
When my Tagalog got better, he began asking me to keep talking to him in English!
That rocket ship was my gift to Jiro on his 6th birthday.
Jiro says his uncle helped him assemble the rocket.
