Have you figured out that I like to write? It was good to hear from you, Becky. Thanks for writing back! I can not tell you all how much we look forward to hearing messages from home. No matter how small you think it may be, the messages are always uplifting.
Just some tid bits and side notes... I am composing a list of "funnies" for you all to read. Mostly, just cute and funny things that have happened among our group here that we found hilarious and thought you may think are at least somewhat funny - haha! I am still collecting the details on all the stories from those who were involved.. so far I have a few about Bill Langley and Pete Sasser, who tease us a lot about how hard they are working (from their break seats, water in hand)! I'll have to tell you about the skink lizard in the house I caught. Also have some funny things the kids have said about our ladies and in conversation. There is a little girl here who just loves Pete, and she has brought him poems and stories that she herself has WRITTEN! Its just great to me, thinking that these children know how to write and use these skills for fun! I love it! Anyway, these short stories will be coming soon so stay posted! :) Pray for electricity so I can bring them to you!
There are lots of cool critters here. Beautiful birds and neato lizards and frogs. I have always loved those types of things (right dad?!). Lets see what else is new... Tommy had our money exchanged today and gave it to us. I have been fitted for a dress, which will be made by the infamous VOH's Ma Margaret. She is a very sweet lady and loves to sew for people. Bill Langley wore the shirt he had made to dinner tonight. It was the brightest loudest orange colored print you have ever seen in your life. Dorothy entered the room, and scanned the place saying "where's Bill? Hey - where is Bill????" When she realized he was standing in the circle (before prayer) right across from her we all died laughing... We realized she was unable to recognize him due to his attire being so out of character!! This place has brought us many tears and many many laughs as well. Our group is growing quickly.
Well, I'll have more stories to share later. Just wanted to say a quick hello and keep you guys coming back for more! I can't believe we've been here nearly a week. Michelle and I collected recipes from our house cooks tonight, Ruben and La Tisha. We really hit them up for the details and we wrote them all down. Can't wait for 4th Sunday fellowship in June!! Wooo Hoooo! Well, I am off to brave the swarm of termites and walk back to our house. Literally -- we have had more rain and they are everywhere!!! I wonder if they would make good fishing bait? haha! until next time, much love~
