It's been a busy week!

This has been a really busy week!! Suki and I have finally finished up our puppet show project! We wrote the skits and spent plenty of time working on the Spanish. We are really lucky to have people in the office that are willing to help us. It is especially nice for me, since my Spanish needs work. Ruben worked with us all afternoon on Wednesday practicing the skit. He helped us out with proununciation and accent. On Thursday we began recording it. Kristi decided that we should record it so that when we do the skit in front of the children tomorrow we will know that they understood it. It was a little intimidating for me to record, especially because that would mean I would have to sit and listen to myself talk.

After the skits were complete we set out on different projects. I am writing a booklet on ideas for working with preschool children. It's a fun project and finding the ideas was pretty easy. I am going to have help translating the booklet and then I get to design it. I'm really excited for this part, it

will be a new adventure for me!

Friday were were able to celebrate independance day. It was really nice to be able to stop and celebrate an American holiday the American way. We went into Navajoa and saw a movie. I was really excited that I understood what was going on almost all of the time. Then we came back and had barbequed hamburgers, potato and macoroni salad and potato chips. It was really fun and the sunset was amazing. It was really cool to have a relaxing homey party.

Starting tomorrow things begin to pick up again. Suki and I are going to be helping with a VBS a f

ew days next week, and we are teaching a childrens class on Tuesday nights. We also have one

last congreso this weekend. I'm excited for this week, but I am also really nervous. I am going to be pushed and stretched in so many new ways. God is really working on my heart this summer and it is so good. I am really excited to see all the things He does through me and all the ways He can work through me this summer and in the future. I really pray that I can use every opportunity I have, and not miss anything. I really pray that I can make even a tiny difference in the life of a child this summer, because a single difference in the perspective of eternity is absolutely priceless!!!! Please keep this week and these children in your prayers.

God Bless
