El año pasado, alrededor del mes de septiembre plantamos un árbol en la banqueta de nuestra casa. Yo tenía tiempo que quería poner uno, ya que el sol nos pega de frente durante casi todo el día, hasta las 4pm es cuando empieza a bajar, eso nos provoca mucho calor. | Last year, around the month of September, we planted a tree on the sidewalk of our house. I had wanted to put one on for some time, since the sun hits us in front of us for most of the day, until 4pm is when it starts to go down, that causes us a lot of heat. |

Un día un señor pasó y me ofreció un árbol, le dije que si y en esos días lo plantó. Estábamos muy felices de que por fin tendríamos un arbolito que nos diera sombra, sin embargo a mí me daba miedo que se me secara, ya que no sé nada de plantas, aunque me gustan mucho, pero no sé cómo cuidarlas. | One day a man came by and offered me a tree, I told him yes and on those days he planted it. We were very happy that we would finally have a little tree that would give us shade, however I was afraid that it would dry out, since I don't know anything about plants, although I like them very much, but I don't know how to take care of them. |

El señor me dijo que como era otoño, le pusiera agua cada dos o tres días, cuando hiciera más frío le pusiera menos, y en tiempo de mucho calor le pusiera diario, con una tina de agua sería suficiente. | The gentleman told me that since it was autumn, to put water on it every two or three days, when it was colder, put it less, and in very hot weather, put it daily, a tub of water would be enough. |

Así lo hicimos, aún con esto el árbol se secó, pensamos que no sobreviviría, pero decidimos seguirle dando agua y no perder la esperanza. Tal vez habría resentido el ser plantado en tierra diferente y aparte había empezado el invierno. Ahora no tenía ni una sola hoja, era sólo un palo seco, pero no nos dimos por vencidos. | We did so, even with this the tree dried up, we thought it would not survive, but we decided to continue giving it water and not lose hope. Perhaps it would have resented being planted in a different land and winter had begun aside. Now it didn't have a single blade, it was just a dry stick, but we didn't give up. |

Llegó la primavera y le empezaron a brotar pequeñas hojitas, seguíamos dándole agua conforme lo iba necesitando. Un día se llenó de hojitas y estás hojitas fueron creciendo hasta que se llenó de hojas muy grandes, le crecían sus ramas y cada día estaban más gruesas. Nos sentíamos aliviados de que se recuperó bastante bien. | Spring came and small leaves began to sprout, we continued to give it water as it needed it. One day it was filled with leaves and these leaves were growing until it was filled with very large leaves, its branches grew and each day they were thicker. We were relieved that he recovered quite well. |

Ahora nuestro arbolito ha crecido, renació después de haberse secado y está en todo su esplendor, por la ventana se alcanza a ver la sombra de sus hojas y sé que muy pronto será todo un señor árbol que nos dará muy buena sombra. | Now our little tree has grown, it is reborn after it has dried up and is in all its splendor, through the window you can see the shadow of its leaves and I know that very soon it will be a real tree that will give us very good shade. |
