“I used to work at St. Jude, but when I had my first son, I decided to stay home for a year. At the end of the year, I planned to return to work, but I couldn’t find a day care I liked. I remember crying my eyes out because, even though I checked out a lot of places, none gave me peace of mind. So I decided to open an in-home day care, and I did that for four years, but after much prayer, God threw another opportunity my way. My husband is from El Salvador, I’m from Colombia, and we speak both Spanish and English, so this past fall, I opened Mi Escuelita Bilingual Christian Academy (Mi Escuelita means “My Little School”). We have 44 children from 16 different countries now. My husband and I work there, and all of the employees are bilingual native Spanish speakers. Being bilingual is not just a plus anymore; it’s more of a ‘must’ these days. Children need it for their future. It opens up so many more opportunities for them."
