Wednesday

Long day today, whew. Pretty great day though, YAY!
Other than my computer. I really need a new computer. And, no, that isn't a "I just want a new computer" comment. That's a, "my computer is going to die soon I can't believe that it's even working for me to post this blog", comment. Anyone have a used lap-top they want to pass over? I can get it in June when I come. You may be thinking "she would never wan tmy lap top, it's too old, too slow." I ASSURE you that any used lap top of yours is an olimpic athlete to my barely walking toddler.

Spent the morning at Casa Alba, ate lunch with the team (props to Natasha and Andy on the Chinese Chicken!!), got sucked into 2 Kings while Caleb had rest time. Who gets sucked into reading a book of the Bible like 2 Kings? It was fascinating - I didn't even realize what time it was and then I was like "Aaaghgh, Caleb! We're supposed to be at Casa Alba right now!"

Grabbed Caleb's friend, Dani (who I watch every Wed. afternoon) and speed walked, as much as one can with a 3 1/2 and 5 year old, to Casa Alba. Ran into the Director's office and had an hour meeting about my new role there (co-ordinating the expansion of the volunteer efforts there, especially with 'Jesus time'...yes, i coined that phrase.). Meeting ran over, then raced out to do a lesson and activity with the Pink Room (our 3 year olds) along with Caleb and Dani. We learned about Peter, how he was in jail for loving Jesus. He prayed and God sent an angel to let him out. I know, how cool is that? We ended with some worship and an impromtu game of "Rata, Rata, Pui" (Duck, Duck, Goose...we taught it to them this summer, they love it!) and started walking home at 6:21pm.

Heated up Sarmale (my 1st try all by myself and I was really exciied about how they turned out!) for Dani and Caleb - I had pancakes and cheese because I had made the Sarmale with pork and I don't eat pork. I'm definitely hoping there will be beef at the meat store tomorrow for my 2nd all by myself try at Sarmale this weekend! Sent Dani home, got Caleb in the bathtub. Read "Santa Clause is Comin' to Town", Caleb's choice. Prayed and got him to sleep. Did prep work for the team that's coming to do a Bible camp for Casa Alba and the gypsy kids in Borumlaca in August and now I am going to bed!
Gata. Enough.
