the kids totally impressed me today. last night chuy and i were planning for today and he said that the kids were going to look at a sequence of drawings and write a story to go along with the drawings. i was skeptical...i really didn't think they were going to be able to do it because they would get frustrated, bored, or just give up. our best writer is still sounding out words, individual sound by individual sound, and it takes a long time to get a sentence down. well, i was wrong! thank goodness! the kids did great! teddy and marisol worked together and did so wonderfully. alex, tonio, jose and i worked together and i wrote what they wanted to say in their story. omar and marcos worked with chuy and worked really hard to get a good start to their story. i have some adorable pictures i'll post on sunday night. it was a really good day...
headed to church for the weekend - tomorrow we're working on the new room adjacent to the sanctuary. it's ready for concrete....although last week it was too. we'll see what happens. have a great weekend! stay warm! it was a beautiful tshirt and capris type of day here...with a light breeze throughout the day and a gorgeous sunset... :)
