Look for me and I will show you where I sit. We can color or simply tell scary stories. Thank you for your time, signed Amanda."Rafael said the letter made him feel very happy because he said Amanda wanted to be his friend.He also said that no one had given him a letter before.Rafael said Amanda would be his friend forever.Paloma Elementary school awarded Amanda for her act of kindness, naming her the student of the month on Friday.The families of the children also got the chance to meet.Rafael's mother said her son felt nervous because he couldn't understand his classmates. She said she thinks what Amanda did was wonderful."I think it's just touched so many people on so many levels. I've personally received 1,600 personal Facebook messages from people all across the world just saying gracias and it doesn't take a translator to know what that means," Amanda's mother Kimber Kinard said.
