LETRADOITE (sneaky or crafty…a Paraguayan value)
Sunday I learned that it was little Marianna’s 2nd birthday and that the following day was her cousin, Diosnel’s 2nd birthday.  Both families have become regulars at church and families that I enjoy talking with.  I immediately thought that it would be nice to bless the kids with cup cakes (they had no plans to celebrate the birthdays).  On Monday (Tuesday I was planning visit them) I made 20 cupcakes, put them in a rectangular container with a lid and set it on the counter.  The TIME students were over Monday afternoon and my time was spent discussing a missions article and watching a video on Catholicism.  At 5:00, when the students left I went to the kids’ room.  All the kids were outside but in the room was the rectangle container that HAD cupcakes in them.  It now had just two cupcakes – one had a bit taken out of it already!  I put on my police hat and began interrogating the children.  All signs lead to Micah, who never did admit it with his words – just his sheepish actions.  It boggles my mind that NONE of the other 4 saw him eat EIGHTEEN cup cakes (I am sure our dog, Lady, helped out too) and leave no trace of crumbs or paper.
