Sunburns and Diet Cokes



So sunburns are definitely not my favorite thing on the planet. They hurt and I don't get tan after...I just turn ghost white again. The weather here is hotter than I remember. I'm homesick but then I look at the kids and the smiles they give, the fast talking Spanish that flows my way when they are all excited about telling me something, or the kisses on the nose from my little Angel (that is really his name) and I remember again why I am here. I love the kids here. I love what I do here, even if it is mainly office work. I love the nights I spend with the ninas watching movies in Spanish and pretending to comprehend it all. They make me smile a lot.

I feel torn sometimes from the life I have back home and the life I have here. I love them both. I pray that I can keep them intertwined for a long time. Well time to get back to my office work and hopefully...no more sunburns for this little Chica.

Hasta Luego!
