I can't believe how 2005 flew!
We celebrated the New Year with some new friends - the Fleeks, the Alexanders, the Mittens, and my sister and brother and lawand family, the Amsbaughs. Played Mad-gab - it was great! The women won, of course. :)
My K-4 class is back in session and we have now started reading groups. It is so cute to watch them walk to the reading circle and the big smile that spreads accross their face as they read the letters. They are adorable. Here is a pic.
We visited 2 Spanish stores on Thursday and are making friends with the owners. One is a Peruvian and one from El Salvador. They are both friendly and open. There is also a fellow my husband met at CiCis restaurant that is in the Army - can't remember from what country, but teaching here at the base right now, and interested in the church. Keep praying with us for new contacts.
Sam has been accepted to Clearwater Christian College and is working on a ROTC scholarship. Dan is going to enter in debate for Fine Arts competition - he should be good at that and is already researching. Libby is enjoying K-5.
We are looking forward to Deacon's Retreat in Montgomery next weekend.
I've been thinking a lot about my old Spanish students in Lafayette and miss them. I enjoy kindergarten, but also miss teaching Spanish.
