March

I cannot believe it is already March 11th! In three months I will be back in the states! Time is flying by! We have one more week until Spring Break--yippee! This next week is Spiritual Emphasis Week. Rosslyn runs it much like a VBS, so all afternoon the kids will be out of class and doing VBS type things. I am helping run it this year, even though I have basically no idea what to do! I hope it goes well. It should be great. We are going to the beach during VBS! Well, the beach on the elementary campus that is :). Then on Sunday I get to go to the real beach! Yay! I am going with a family to help watch their four kids and to have fun with them. I have already been told I will be jumping in the waves with them :).

I am trying to think of any other exciting news. We are taking a break from having babies for at least the next 4 weeks. If you think about it, pray that we would have wisdom in this area. But Leo is doing really well! He still goes with the other family some and is at the orphanage some. He gained about 6 pounds in six weeks! And he is starting to walk with help! I am so happy with how well he has done. God is good.

My second graders are as busy as ever. We just finished learned about cultures. In a class with 12 different cultures represented this is a lot of fun! They gave little speeches about their heritage and then we had a cultural food celebration where they brought in food from their cultures. It was so yummy! I am so thankful for my 19 (18 present, 1 in the US right now) little blessings!
