This is only the second time that I have been able to get online. We have all been really busy. We go to school from 9 to 2. I am assisting in second grade, teaching Moral Science ( Biblestudy), and art every other Saturday. I teach science in second grade, but it is hard because they do not understand English. They are told something three times in English and once in Hindi and than they understand. It is hard, but I am excited to help the teacher with new ideas. She always wants me to talk about how it is in America. After school we help hte boys with their homework. They have work duties, picking up sticks and working out in the fields. That is our time to get done anything that we need or want to do. Then we go back and do devotions with the boys, again help with homework, eat, read stories and go to bed. Being with the boys is amazing. I love reading to the boys, I read them Little Bear, which my mom would read to me. I started Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. They really like reading new books every night. I have spent the most time with the smaller boys. They are all so cute and have the best personalities. I have learned a couple of their names and got a sheet that Amanda made with their names and pictures, which will help. There is no place that I rather be than here! Even though I take showers with my boots on.

Kelly!
It sounds like you are having a great time already and can you believe it has only been over a week? So far you have not missed much. Just working right now at the coffee shop and wanting to go back to sleep. Today is the inauguration and I am interested for you to see how it is in another country. Well we all love you and miss you. talk to you later
Dear Bear, Great to hear your voice this morning. Everything here is good and cold. I drive home from work with a coat on my legs just to keep warm until I come home. We had our Xmas party on Saturday nite at Cod Hill. Lots of fun. Been busy with work and Dad is leaving Saturday to go to Calif. He will stay with Dorie, Greg and Sue and Harold. I hope he will have a good time. Miss you so much. Love Mom
Hi Kelly,
Bill Paris and I both agreed last night that Lazarus House is just not the same without you there. All the guys miss you. The pictures posted are amazing. By the way, Peter Pan is my favorite book, great choice to read to the children. Be safe and God Bless.
