It gets dark here around 6:45 so after that my life it lit by
the stars and candles. Since candle
lighting limits the activities that can be done Dahlia and I spend a lot of
evenings playing cards before we go to bed.
She brought Skip-Bo from home which is what we most often play. Stela was over one say and saw the cards out
and asked us to teach her how to play. She
loved it! And so both Saturday and Sunday she brought a few of the other
teachers over to our house so that they could learn also. They were absolutely hysterical learning to
play! Makala would announce at the beginning of every game that this one was
going to be “Makala’s game”. Then he
would look with horror every time he drew a card he couldn’t use. Thus far no game has actually been “Makala’s
game”. Grace consistently talked to her
cards, scolded Dahlia and I when we made a
good play and when she finally won a game proceeded to run around the
room dancing and singing. I am starting
to feel like I am really becoming friends with the other teachers here which I am
SO thankful for! They are incredible generous, so protective of Dahlia and I,
and are always making me laugh!
