Happy Saturday everyone!! News in our area…
This week, the big news is that the kids did start in-person classes! The kids were so excited, but it’s been a hard adjustment. Several of the kids missed the first two years of school because of the pandemic, and so their very first days of in-person classes were Monday. Instead of easing into long classes and being away from home, they jumped in all at once! One of the little boys burst out crying by 10 am saying he was ready to go home and have a nap. But they got through it! And it’ll be easier next week.
The national guard has been stationed in the elementary school for a few months during a cartel fight in the area. Things have calmed down on that front (thank you Lord!) but the moms still want them to stay in the area, so they moved the preschool in with the elementary school and the soldiers are just down the road in the preschool building.
Also! Today is a big holiday for the kids! Dia de los Niños. We were planning a big party with the kids today, especially since it’s been a big week for them, but our church is also having a party so we’re going to delay ours till next Saturday. Extra parties for the kids!
Ok, onto our week in photos! ♥
