una semana larga


This past week felt like one of the longest yet—even though we had a holiday on Monday.

The week started out well.  I spent Labor Day doing some of my favorite things—exercising in the morning, walking around Old San Juan in the afternoon, and sharing dinner with friends in the evening. 

Then the school week began.  Here are the highlights:
·   The grandfather of one of our students passed away, and we took the kids to the wake.
·   We acquired a new student (whose hearing levels have yet to be assessed, so we’re not sure how long she’ll be here).
·   Our favorite volunteers—the Yoders—returned from a month in the States.

It may not seem like it just from reading the list above, but by our Thursday-night staff Bible study, we were all completely exhausted.  At least one of us may have fallen asleep while we were praying together!  But God gave us good rest on Thursday night because we all managed to have smiles on our faces on Friday. 

I’m thankful that this week is over, and I’m looking forward to starting fresh tomorrow.
