no school today; chuy decided it was too cold.

meanwhile, while the sun was shining and the kids were hanging out outside, i worked with some of them, teaching them about their 5 senses and using popcorn to give them a hands on example of each sense.

ron, this sweet old man who comes at least once a week (everyone calls him abuelo), brought a bunch of his neighbors over today. they had a cargo van packed with donations as well as a suburban. it was awesome! i love when people come to gabriel house for the first time...it's so fun to see it through their eyes.

the librarian stopped by today...i was going to take the boys on friday, but she said it won't work this week. she felt so bad and promised that next friday we'll do it, instead. i was like, don't worry, i'll be here for a few more months! it's probably for the best, though...the cake group is coming saturday, and i'm (hopefully...) bringing the boys to church on sunday. it's going to be a full weekend anyways!
