Weather Report in Kerala: Still Hot with no Plans to Cool off

Well, nothing too exciting has happened since I last updated. This week has gone pretty smoothly as far as the daily activities go. The kids made bracelets on Monday and Tuesday and then they watched an Elmo movie yesterday and today. The girls are going to finish the movie tomorrow and then we'll probably work on some puzzles or something for a little while until it's time for their prayer meeting. I'm hoping to do crafts with them next week but as of right now I have no glue, so I'll have to see if I can get some when I go into town on Saturday. I'm also planning on sleeping over at the Children's Home sometime in the next 2 weeks so I can spend some quality time with the older girls. The younger girls generally hang around me when I'm there so it's more difficult to get to know the older ones. I think a sleepover will be fun for them and a new experience for us both!

Next week we are doing a Bible trivia contest. Everyday we will be handing out prizes and hopefully a few people will be left as the "winners" at the end of the week. Kim's friend sent some pretty cool stuff that we'll be handing out as prizes. I'll update about how that goes sometime next week.

I am scheduled to leave India on December 1st for a month long break back home. I'll be coming back the first week in January. I'm really excited about getting a break to relax and see my family over Christmas, but I'm also sad to be away from the kids for that long. I just hope they don't forget me!
