Schooooool is out for the sum...winter! That's right, the school year is OVER here in Honduras and you can feel the excitement of te kids wherever you go. Many I've seen walking in town have their t-shirts covered with their friends' "autographs" written with markers."Our" kids, Jorge, Miguel, and Fatima are also finished until February. they did well and Jorge and Miguel will enter their age level in Feb. Fatima will stay in special ed. We attended a parent meeting today that was really good. We recieved the three kids' report cards and were told that they can go on Saturday's from 10-12pm until Dec.11. On that day(I think) they will have a grand christmas party sponsored mostly by another Christian brother/USA missionary who works closely with this project of special/deaf children. We are really bummed we won't be able to attend but told the teachers we'd like to help with "supplies" (aka candy for the pinata). The two ladies are mom/daughter who go to our church and direct/administrate this project, as well as teach daily. And they are some of our closest and funnest friends here in La Esperanza. During the meeting they appointed different parents to the "board" of the Parents of Special Ed children and Beto was named President, quickly and unanimously!!! I am so proud! For lunch we went for chinese food with Darlene(daughter on right), her two brothers, and another teacher. mmm...Afterwards we were hanging out and santi sat down on this green bench, patted the place next to him with his hand, and told me "Mum!"(come). And he likes to hold my hand.
Practicing his surfing moves for LB.
Tired of taking pictures.
