I have learned so much from my friends!
I even learned how to make sopitos.
I guess Samuel learned how to celebrate Memorial Day.
Since I like being a student, I have enjoyed being able to learn something new. Anthony and I have met with Carmen for 4 hours per week since September. Emily (next to me) is learning the math of the monarchs, since she is researching butterflies with Anthony for two months.
This mango tree is what I call "bearing fruit!" May the Holy Spirit be producing abundant spiritual fruit in our lives as well. We still have so much to learn.
Samuel is learning so much at school, including how to stop at rojo and go at verde. Just so that you can know about some of the English learning at our household, Sam said (a few minutes ago) "I winned because I goed first."
What do you learn at a fĂștbol birthday party?
After a few busy days, I came home to this messy house and there was a note on our door from a cleaning lady suggesting that we hire her. I learned that by leaving the curtains open, she was able to see this sight through the window. Whatever would give her the idea to suspect, "No tienes tiempo para limpiar?" (Don't have time to clean?) She didn't even have to walk across the sticky floor.
The teachers at Instituto Adonai put together an impressive, beautiful dinner for parents between Mother's Day and Father's Day.
Emily knows how to enjoy a day at the beach in Mexico!
This guy knows how to enjoy a day at the beach, too.
I enjoyed this smile, or sometimes one with excited jumping, every time I returned with a bucket of water for his tower.
We had to say "goodbye" to these two precious gifts from God in our lives. They have changed our lives WAY more than we have changed theirs. Yes, I am crying now. We will only have one more opportunity to have other children stay with us for a weekend before we leave. Anthony and I have learned that foster care may be part of our future in the U.S.
