Well, The summer is almost finished. We have now finished all the week long programs, and we are too the weekend programs again!! But its a extented weekend program. This week we are having a program run by Van Gilmer, who is a Bahai singer, and its a choral program, where they have a concert on the last night, so thats exciting! And Ciara, my roomie is trying to see if she can get a shift this week so she can participate! Which is so cool!
The last week here was really good! We had a former member of the Universal House of Justice, Mr Grossman (the Universal House of Justice, is kind of the Head of the Bahai faith, We have an administrative side to the faith, where is runs from local community's to national and then to world wide. And its not to tell us how we should read the writing or to control us, its just so we have a guide to help us in times of hardship). It was my second last Children's class of the summer, but my last week long one. So i was a little sad, closing my classroom door after all the cleaning. But something really sweet happened...Well its starts like this...This week we had a really big group, 10 kids. And the first day i was sick (we had a sickness going around, and i thought i was the only one not to get it...but no) so i had the first day off and then the second day i did organizing jobs since someone was still filling in for me. So the thrid day comes, Monday and it was really hard and loud and crazy. But then after the kids went to their parents i went to chill in my classroom, waiting for my teacher to get ready for the next day. And The Teacher's (Maryann) daughter and her friend were playing in there, i let them stay while i was on my laptop. Then all of a sudden they sit down on our praying rug, and start singing 'Blessed is the Spot' (a prayer) It was so cute and sweet and really made my whole summer, and reminded me why i loved teaching these little kiddies! :)
So yeah, we had our day off today, and we all just chilled down at the Inn in our staff lounge and hung out watched movies. I went for a walk this morning which was really nice! And yeah im excited to start the winter with Ciara, Alex, Colin, Mia, Maddie, Sina, Rebekka and Sahar! :)
Thats all for now!
Goodnight folks.
