Addison needs a translator, please!?

Hi All,

Wondering if any of you fluent-in-Spanish folks have the time to translate something for us? (from English to Spanish)....It would mean a great deal....

In fact, I wonder if there's ever a way we can "barter" this so the ones who are willing to help out, get a little something in return....any ideas are welcome!

Please PM me if you can help....

And here's a pic to inspire you!!!

Hugs,
Jen
and Addison Grace, now 19 months old...whew!!

busy busy

Addison has been a little under the weather lately, and scaring the bejeepers out of her Mama at times, but she's on the mend now, we think. We still have to get some tests run this week, so we hope you will keep her in your prayers!!

Here's a pic when she was ready to go INTO the weather....the snow, that is! This was taken the second week in December, when we got a little of the white stuff here in VA.....she could not wait to get out there and LOVED IT!!! Boy it was tough getting her to come back inside. LOL!

Jen
and Addison, the sweetest snow angel!

Watch out Jen!!

Kelly will want Addison's entire wardrobe for translating....

That is such a cute pic, her smile looks so fake like she is saying "okay okay here, take the picture and let me out!"

I'm sorry Addison hasn't be well. Mayra had a cold the week before Christmas. She wasn't a happy camper, but it wasn't too bad for me, no trips to the emergency room, no scary medical tests.
Hope the test results turn out good-
Kathleen

Too Cute!

Addison is just precious! Sorry she's been sick. Isaac got sick on Christmas Day, it took quite a while for him to get over it! It's so hard when the little ones don't feel well.

Glad she's feeling better, love the outfit!

AddisonsMommy - I just wanted to thank you for the offer of a "repayment" of translation services. As a bilingual person (formed in adulthood), this gesture is much appreciated. Many people do not appreciate the work that is involved. Translating is not replacing words, it's putting thoughts and meaning into another language. That's why machine translation is so awful - word by word is not translating. It's also not instant. Please give your translator sufficent time to do quality work. Learning another language is a lot of work and a lifetime of learning. Thank you again for respecting the process.

I am not a professional translator and so I'm not at the level to do "official" Eng to Spanish translation (like documents, medical info etc), but I"m happy to do casual things like Eng to Spanish foster family letters, emails, that sort of thing, so happy to be of service to anyone who needs help. just pm me
