Oh, for the pictures

So today I went back to school after being home sick yesterday. It was like my kids knew how bad I felt and made up for it by being extra sweet and adorable. Luckily there was chapel, so that took up some time. They whipped through math and we had a fun recess full of jump rope and piggy back rides. After recess we did our spelling and phonics fast and got ready for lunch early! I got some delicious food for lunch from my "mom" and my kids gave me food too. After lunch we had reading time where everyone was quiet and social studies where only one kid got in trouble for throwing a paper airplane. I gave them another recess where I pushed them on the swings, became superwoman and flew them around, healed a "broken leg", owned them in basketball, and taught them some fun new sounds like Dory when she was trying to be a whale in Finding Nemo. We did our last subjects, handwriting, science, and language quickly and quietly and then had free time! It went so well that I waited all day for something awful to happen but it didn't! How great is that! After school I visited with some other kids from other classes and my room was full for at least another hour with students just coming in to say hi or to play games in my room. When I finally locked up and headed home, I found Jeanine cooking! She made us both a delicious lunch of potatos, mixed vegetables, and meat. I made fried eggs and we had a great home cooked meal. Then we went out shopping for food and I got a delicious mango drink. It was such a great day :] I can only hope that tomorrow will be the same. The only small downer is that I think I'm getting those annoying bumps back. It's possible that they are bug bites from this past weekend on the island, but I'm pretty sure that they're those dreaded bumps. Please no! I just want to be painless and not sick for a week or so. For those of you who don't know, my dad will be here in Palau in exactly three weeks to do week of prayer for SDA and PMA. I am SO excited to see him and show him Palau. It's great to know that when I go home and describe this experience, he will have a point of reference and will know how amazing it is here. I seriously am in love with this place. I adore it. Also, my mom will be coming for Thanksgiving! She will also get to see the island and meet my host family. Can't wait! I wish pictures would load from this past weekend, because it was the most amazing thing I have ever seen in my whole life!
