Our reading club on the last time.
Joe and our host sister Lorena.
Lorena and our neighbor kid, Andrés
Andrés and Lorena....we spend a lot of our nights playing cards with them.We survived our week apart was not as bad as we thought it would be though we do not want to do it again. I spent my time in the schools giving charlas about nutritution and brushing your teeth. Joe worked in the schools as well talking about self esteem and built a fogon....an outdoor stove. It has been really hot here and I cannot wait for a little cooler weather. On the way back home from my long field practice we stopped at a resturant with some delicious American hamburgers and french fries, though I spent a lot of my money on the amazing ice cream.
Yesterday we went to Asuncion and went to a movie, Slumdog Millionare. It was an awesome movie and we were excited it was in English wish Spanish Today..Sunday was my last reading club with the kids in my neighborhood. We had to have six meetings and our last meeting we played games, ate cookies, and gave them certificates and books.
Wednesday we find out our site...we are very excited. Friday we will leave to visit our future site from Friday until Wednesday. Please pray for us as we meet our new community.
We miss you all!
