The verse this week is “Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.” it normally comes out “blessed are the weak, for they shall inmerit the merth.” or my personal favorite: “Blessed are the meat, for they shall hair-it the ert.”
i always ask the kids if they used soap when the washed their hands…to prove it, they instantly stick their hands under my nose to smell. not always the funnest thing.
i couldn’t remember how to spell “Matthew” or “Motorcycle” today. my mind goes blank with English because it has been awhile since i have read things in English.
I put lots of stuff on my walls with tape. in the tropical weather, they are constantly falling off. last week, something wandered into my room (English classroom) and got stuck to the tape and died. my student looked down at the tape and started screaming. it was a baby scorpion. the part that bothered me is that when there are babies, there are mommy and daddy ones too. so we named it Sam. Sam the scorpion was about an inch long, but before i could take a picture…someone stole him. bye-bye Sam.
i talked to my parents. i am getting excited about whatever all God has planned for me during this time home. Dad said i could paint a mural on the garage (painting murals with spray paint is my next big project. i am going to make the world beautiful one wall at a time. please tell me spray paint isn’t expensive.). I don’t know if a job is going to work out since i am only home for 3 and a half months…still praying about that. Dad said i could make money butchering chickens…i am not sure if the money compensates for the mental anguish. We are also going to build a fort for Johnny. and i think i will bike ride everywhere…GAS IS $3.19 a gallon? WHAT THE HECK? WHAT ARE PEOPLE DOING IN THE US?
Anna is at the airport right NOW. please pray for her trip…this is her first time flying alone internationally. go girl. She arrives tomorrow, 4:15pm. i leave Thursday at Midnight, but since it is all red-eye flights, don’t end up arriving in Indianapolis until Saturday, May 12, at 4:09pm.
