I have my chair set up and ready for some reading. I was out earlier this afternoon enjoying the sounds of birds and squirrels.
We did Kindergarten registration and one of the families that came in was the family that took in a 14 year old Guatemalan girl I was working with a couple if years ago. I was so happy to see her and discover that she is still going to school. It was truly a joy for me.
Then two says later I found that my Guatemalan student that I have this year moved to Chicago. I was sad and concerned. Wendell is a pretty safe place. I just can't imagine that she is moving to a safe neighborhood in Chicago. I wish I could keep in touch. I have these new immigrants move into our area and I enjoy keeping track of their progress. I wouldn't be surprised if they move back but I will pray for their safe journey, where ever they are.
Life certainly has its upside and downs.
