Prayer request: If you have time, please pray for all the missionaries at Sonlight and that they would be able to get enough rest and energy from God for each day. There is like a voodoo ceremony thing going on in our neighborhood for the next week and the people in it are drumming pretty loud from like 10pm to 6:30am so it can be hard to sleep for some people so just pray for them and that God would give them the energy to still be able to teach well for their students and all that. Thankfully I was able to sleep on the couch in the living room the other night and it's a lot quieter in there than in my bedroom.
Today Ketsia and Wawens lost a tooth during class! Wawens had his hand raised and I went over to him to see what he needed and then he opened up his hand and there was a tooth inside haha, so then we have these necklaces with a big plastic tooth on it and it opens up so they can put their real tooth inside, so I gave him one of those. And then within five minutes Ketsia lost a tooth too, and then all the kids in the classroom started wiggling their loose teeth and they all wanted to show us their loose teeth, it was cute. :)
And at recess I pushed Rose on the swing a lot again haha and then after she'd take my hand and say "Miss Sarah we have to go chase Dan! We have to get Dan!" And Dan is the most adorable little kid, he's the shortest boy in our class, and he's just so cute. So then we'd chase him around (or Rose would and I'd walk because I was tired haha) and when we caught him, we'd tickle him. He's so cute, it's fun playing with them.
And then for lunch we had Haitian rice and beans and fried plantains, which is amazing. I have been waiting so long to eat that!
And then later in the day I got so nervous again thinking about teaching on Monday, but my Dad was there to reassure me. And then I went in my room and opened more of the letters that Meredith organized for me and I can't get over how sweet of a thing that was for her to do and those letters have encouraged me so greatly when I doubt myself. I'm so blessed to have such an amazing support system.
And then I got to call my mom! because on facebook you can call people now, so that was really nice, we talked for over an hour! I missed hearing her voice, so that was great. :)
Love you all!
