HOLA AMIGOS

wow, i am so excited to finally BE HERE!!!! thank you all so much for praying; truthfully, yesterday was probably one of the longest days of my life, but it gave me a lot of time to process the fact that i was leaving everything and everyone i love behind, and moving on to a new place, a place and people that i am learning to love just as much. : ) God certainly is great, and it's been a wonderful first day here. we jumped right in to living here without delay: after arriving at about 11:30pm, we got up at 7:00 the next morning in order to get ready for school, which starts 8:00am. i spent the day getting a tour, meeting teachers, and then taught PE with Alberto (not the one i already knew). It was fun, but i sure got an immediate tan/burn, as i forgot to put on sunblock this morning. don't worry, i learn fast. : ) now i'm spending the afternoon helping the trautwein kids with their math, latin, grammar, etc. the weather is beautiful, as well as the country, and i absolutely love it here. i can't thank you all enough, again, for your prayers and support, i miss you all in the states, and will be thinking of you often.






chase trautwein, and some girls in her class : )
