From left to right: Diana, Anderson and Heidi are now Steph and My sisters and brother. Yesterday, we had a music party in our front hall. There is not an unpleasant child in sight.
Steph and I share a room on the second floor, where each of us have a huge bed to ourselves, which last night we pushed together and a few others joined us for a candle-lit, folk music hang out time. We've got a great big blue glass-stained window, which on several occasions has been used by boys to get our attention, which makes us feel quite like princesses.
Today we had our first actual community activity, an art carnival for all the kids in the villiage. Jenna and I will be running art programs every saturday, and tuesdays and thursdays for the older kids. Here's a taste of what that looked like!
This afternoon, we are hiking up into the massive hills to see "Don" Roberto's macadamia farms (Robert is one of the founding members of Global Shores. He's here with us for 2 weeks). I don't know if I'm really up for a hike, but I know I should stop being a girl and just do it.
So, in essence, I am doing wonderfully, learning more spanish every day, and pray that my energy remains as high as it is right now...not going to lie, those big beds make it hard for me to want to be productive....
