Josefina Chapter 2 ( Abuelito's surprise ) __ Mai

              Josefina's childhood was different from the childhood kids have today in your country

Nowadays, In my country, Children's are belong to technology too much. Nowadays, They always have iPad, cellphone in their hands. However, Josefina's childhood plays folk games.  At that time Josefina has a lot of fun on the ranch with her family. She helps her family to do something.  She is an innocent girl, Josefina is really like to hear piano music. Abuelito said that " The girls and I have never seen or heard a piano".
If I were I child, I would rather live in Josefina time. Because at that time, her life is very peaceful. I want to see the rancho and activities of her family. In my opinion, the Rancho is an amazing place. The countryside which has ancient activities such as laundry. But now in a big city, we do not have anymore.

  3. I really love Josefina’ life and the rancho where she lived. However, I think it was unfair for lovely, smart girl like her to live and do the same simple things everyday in the rancho.
