Mercedes's personality:
she is a smart, sweet and gentle little girl . She has sense of humor , she likes to laugh at funny things.
She is neat, clean and orderly ! Her bedroom needs to be perfecly in orden and she needs to knows what she has and where is it ?
Mercedes is very social but also, she is carfull specially outisde the house and with strangers , it could be in the mall , supermarket or the park she wont talk to you if she does not know you . We considere it as a safety thing.
Food :
She loves fruits and vegetables just like her sister Sabina . She also like soup and pasta ! She does not refuses to eat meat but it is not her favorite thing , I believe this is from Robert's part . She likes salmon and shrimps .
Mercedes takes lots of time to finish her meal, but the more important thing for us is how much and how good she eats so the time is not a big deal. She know that ,and tries to eat faster so she can stand up from the table .
She loves going to her school everyday , she has some good friends , and loves her teacher !
Mercedes is very determined in what she does , with her homework .
Sleep:
Mercedes sleep very good at night , in bed she likes to talk about how was her day and remember the good things she had , she can not forget to pray and say Thanks for all the good thing she has . Mercedes wakes up sometimes at night becuase she wants water, milk or a hug !
Dreams or imagination:
Mercedes really wants a puppy as a pet , we keep telling her she will have it when she is bigger and if she promise to taking care of it . At this point she would like to be a Dr. veterinarian when she grow up ! We know her dreams might change but she wont forget they way we made her feel . And this is one of her favorite games to play as well . She loves to be the dr. and Sabina & me , we bring all the animals we find in the house , those are the greatest moments we spend together .
As I said , she has a big imagination so asked me if I could help her to "build " a coffe shop for her , I had no idea how to make that with boxes but together we did it and it is amazing to see how much time she has been playing with it , a free toy that she invented .
Behavior:
She would do anything we ask her if we if we ask it polite as she said . She defends her rights and fight for them if she has to , she is very mature and very often surprise us with the things she say .
I remember Sabina was mad a few days ago and pinched Mercedes in the hand so Mercedes put Sabina in front on her and Told her :" Sabina you are allowed to be mad , and to be mad is totally OK , but becuase that you are not allowed to pinch me or nobody ."
Mercedes let us to know her feelings , when she is upset, happy , tired or sad . She comes to me usually and talk about the way she is feeling .
She likes physical affection ( for example she likes to hug , she likes to be held). She is physically active as well, she enjoy playing sports, runnung , swimming , gymnastics etc.
