Made it 30 days...

Fourth grade is such a great year, and I love my kids. I am so blessed with such a great group of kids! They have such tender hearts and are always excited about learning.

I had my class make themselves and with them we were going to make a poster of our class. I showed them how big my model was and then told them to scale it from there.... it was quite humerous to see how tall vs how short some of the kids made themselves.

The giant kid in the red soccer jersey....yea one of the shortest kids in our class. And all the girls made themselves the shortest/smallest and their definitely the tallest in my class.... Puberty hasn't quite hit in fourth grade.

On our 30th day at Faith, the staff held a sort of "celebration" dinner celebrating that we've made it 30 days. And although it may not seem like something huge to celebrate, it was a great reminder that God has brought me so far, and only 9 more months til I get to visit the states again!

This is my new room mate Ruth. She's so cute, and has just jumped right on in into the elementary staff! we love her, and I'm excited to have a room mate other than the
occasional cockroach.

Sharon is always excited when there isn't any dairy in the food... haha

Some really great teachers here at Faith. Ruth is helping out in any way possible, while Leo is teaching 5th grade.

I told them I haven't taken any pictures of myself yet, and that I needed proof that it was actually me behind the camera...

I told them to remind me that I need to be photographed as well as photographing... Never thought I would need to be reminded that...
