The day I came back from the States we had a tropical storm-it rained for two days! Rainy season is on the way which also means: cooler weather, (yeah!) and more sanqudos or mosquitoes.
I brought back glittered heart shaped clips for house 1 and 2 girls, it was only a matter of hours before they had regular-ed them (gave them away) to other vols and their friends!
9th graders Nolvia and Nelly just started geometry and trigonometry which makes me excited to go to study hour with them. And 1st graders are becoming more proficient in their English and often respond in English in interesting ways. This Thursday and Friday I will be teaching 3rd and 4th grade, not health classes but ALL day! Good thing one is a cultural celebration and the other day is character appreciation day.
We have a pet tarantula that lives in the bathroom above the shower where the wall and ceiling meet. He/she never comes down much or out at all which is great. Except that my room is on the other side of that divide! Also on the subject of creatures remember to always bring a flashlight with you to the bathroom in the middle of the night; you never know what will be there-RAT!! No more scorpions to report of.
New volunteers/missionaries will be here in one month!!! WELCOME TO THE FARM NEWBIES!!! We will have a weeklong retreat in two weeks to prepare for our new community, so please pray for us all.
Love you and miss you all!
