After 5 weeks off, we began homeschooling again this
week. Man, it is tough to get back into
the swing of things.
Here’s what else went on this
week:
Our quincho came down!
It took 7 guys 8 hours to disassemble it. The process was amazing to watch (and not to
mention a bit distracting to our schooling).
We asked two friends from other towns to being working on
our new house. They stayed with us
Monday night and headed to Jataity Tuesday.
Wednesday Karen, our newest SIM team mates came for a
visit. She is a teacher and gave our
kids and art and music (on the recorder) lesson. We went to pick mandioca while she was here.
Thursday we had team mates who were passing through for
lunch and mobile clinic in Jataity.
We made several trips to Jataity to inspect the work (which
is looking GREAT).
The kids love playing in the giant sand pile that the men
are using to make cement. Let me tell
you, I will not be sad when the sand is all used up!
Laying the
bricks for the quincho (our dining room).
These guys are doing a great job!
