Sick

Singing songs

Today was a very laid back day at school. It was chapel today so while Angie worked on a few things I hooked up the lap top, projector, and speakers, prayed we had enough electricity and pushed play. It was a DVD of children's ministry songs with motions (Arica I'm sure you know all the songs). The kids enjoyed being able to be active, and the teachers were hoping that it would get some of their energy out. After that I taught Math to the Kindergarten class, so Angie could get some more stuff done. After Math I looked up some testing results for Angie, that she needed to look over (it is a long process.) We then worked on the Kindergarten class' memory books. We helped them fill out papers that said "I love God because...Jesus is my...My favorite Bible story is...in Kindergarten I learned..." After lunch her and I did some work in the library, typing letters, sending email, etc. She then had to go to a meeting so I went and graded for Mrs. Z, then we practiced our song for the program (boy do I have my hands full with that group.)

I have been feeling sick all day, so I'm glad it was a relaxing day. I have been nauseous and just feel crummy. The bite on my hand is getting better (I think it is a mosquito bite that just got really puffy.) As the former Haiti team members know, mosquitoes LOVE me and I the bites get really big and red.

A man from Salem came yesterday, Mark Haney. He will be helping Brett in the office. It was cool to find out he knows Pastor Rich and some of my family members. I'm glad he is here because since I'm not feeling well, I didn't stay after dinner to play games with the kids, like I usually do, so he took my place. A team from Olney is coming tomorrow and we are all going to the same beach we went to in January (I will not be having the fish.) I am praying that I am feeling better by tomorrow.

I am really missing Matt, my family, and friends but I am more than thankful to be here. I can't imagine how Angie would be feeling if she didn't have any help.

I want to give a shout out to Erika and Maria who are reading my blog from Chicago, love you ladies!
