As Tony mentioned in the blog before this, it´s been hard to write everyday (mainly because the internet is very moody), so I will write about yesterday and today.
Yesterday was a good day for some and not too good for others. Josh was sick so I´m guessing that yesterday wasn´t his best day although he did get to watch movies all day so I don´t know...I got to have a Spanish class in the morning, but it was the last one for this week (thank goodness! I didn´t enjoy getting homework)
After a fantastic lunch I went to the Kaya Center to continue painting the wall. When I got there, though, I was so surprised to see how much other people had worked on it. It is so colorful. I am very excited for it.
So yesterday wasn´t the most exciting day but today was definitely my favorite day so far. We decided to cancel the Spanish classes because they took up the whole morning. By doing that, it freed up the mornings so I could see the kids. I was pretty bummed because I had been here for two days and I had yet to see and spend time with any of the kids. But this morning, Katia (a voluteer for Kaya), Josh, and I got to go to Hogar Renacer and see the youngest boys. We had such a blast. Even though Josh and I couldn´t understand pretty much anything the boys were saying, we just had a lot of fun taking pictures, playing Uno, and spending time with the boys. While we were there, we were supposed to interview the boys (just ask them a few basic questions) but we also had to take pictures of them. They all insisted on taking their showers and combing their hair to perfection before Josh took their pictures. I thought it was so cute, though, when one of the kids came out with a nice shirt and clean pants and was shining his dress shoes. After hanging out with them for a few hours we went with them to play soccer at a nearby field. Josh and I almost died just getting there though because we had to walk up a HUGE mountain.
In the afternoon we went to the Kaya Center and continued painting on the wall...it´s definitely getting there!
That pretty much sums up today. The dentists will hopefully write later this evening, hopefully...
Buenas Noches
