Setting up school

We have spent most of the last two days starting to set up our classroom. There is still much to be done, but we have begun organizing the curriculum, going through books, cleaning up the room and making plans for bookshelves, desks, curtains, etc. It has been a lot of fun for David and I to work together on this project. And our children have been enjoying playing with their new friends while we work. We had to leave campus earlier yesterday in order to get some supplies in town and the children were disappointed to leave their friends. We are excited to move beyond just learning to handle daily tasks and to start preparing for the work we came here to do, to teach. Of course there will be plenty more learning about daily tasks, but we are starting to get our feet under us. Here is a photo of David working in our classroom.

On a side note, please pray for us as several of us have had some upset stomach. Not sure if it is just adjusting to the food here or a virus that had been going around GSF. Thanks for your prayers!
