My small group came over yesterday for a craft afternoon. This age group(8th graders) is so fun because they still really like projects like this.
I love the diversity of my group! Andrea (Dutch), Jenai (Irish), Christa (American), Randra (Madagascar), Jessi (Swiss), and Samael (Tanzanian). Hannah (Korean) wasn’t there. I wish I could tell you all the wonderful things these girls’ parents are doing throughout Tanzania, but this isn’t the place to write about it. HOPAC has only 8 boarding students and 3 of them are in my group!
Grace totally amazed me yesterday. She wanted to participate too, so she got set up at the table with pony beads and yarn, and she spent almost 2 hours stringing those beads! When she ran out and wanted more, we took all her beads off the string and she did it over again! Love the tongue–total concentration. 🙂
Her legs are finally long enough! Go, Gracie, Go!
(And yes, my daughter does does run around in just underwear a lot of the time. I admit it.)
I wash and reuse my zip-lock bags. Lots of times. According to past roommates (who shall remain nameless) and friends who now live in Long Beach (who shall remain nameless), this made me weird. Very weird.
But I was raised in Africa. You couldn’t buy zip-lock bags there. They were a luxury so you re-used them until they didn’t hold together anymore. So I did it in the States too—out of habit, I guess. Now I do it because I’m living in Africa again and I have to make my one box of bags last two years.
But this makes me Green, right? Now, I know I haven’t lived in the States for a while, but Green means Cool, right? Not weird? Definitely not weird.
Wash ‘em, stick ‘em on the wall to dry. Good as new.
