Jesus Wants Me For A Sun...BEAM!

I've learned so much from working with kids this summer. I have learned more about why Jesus tells us to become like little children. So I thought I'd share more precious pictures of my lovely children. (Well, surrogate kids anyway.)

This is Evan. His dad is English and has a really cool accent. Evan can make the saddest face in the whole world that just breaks your heart! I love his eyes.
This is Sam. HE IS SO SWEET! He has such a cute smile. His eyes are green and he always carries a stuffed dog with him. I love Sam!

This is Nyla. She has the raspiest voice I've ever heard (because she screams a lot). She calls me Teacher Ang-uh-lee. She's doing a lot better with the whole screaming thing and it helps that she's so cute!

This is Spence! He was my life-saver Sunbeam that answered all the questions and listened when I was talking. His big sister is Lexi, Saren's best friend in the ward. Spence uses his hands to talk a lot. It's hilarious!

Welcome to the TFM!

Our temporary family member (TRM) Lucrecia loved the coast. She had never seen the ocean and was quite amazed at the beauty of Ecola. We are having fun here at home having her here. Personally for me, it has been an interesting experience to be scared out of my wits concerning my Spanish abilities. Granted, she is a native speaker so she speaks SUPER-DUPER fast! Saren loves explaining things to her slowly in English and is very pleased when she is understood. All in, all we are loving having her with us in, what is to her, the foreign United States!

Really Being At Work

Woops. Sorry about that. So, working at Small World Learning Center has been a great learning experience. And there have been so many cute kids!!! Here are two pictures of 2 of my favorite kids. The girl is Libby and the boy is Miles. Aren't they ADORABLE?!?!
