| Alina with Michell at Big Circle |
We were told last night that there wouldn't be any veggies to cut this morning, so we could come a little later. That was exciting news since today is Friday...meaning it's Big Circle once again. Big Circle begins at 6am right outside our room, but the boys start coming at 5:30, so it's hard to miss it. Today is also Katja's birthday. We listened to the message/devotion/sermon this morning from a member of the AL team. When the singing began after the message, we headed to the Toddler House only to find out that we could've stayed for all of Big Circle...oh well, perhaps next week (as it will be our last).
This morning the lady in charge of monitoring the kids at the Pavilion, Glinda, had a doctor's appointment for her pregnancy check-up...she's 5 months along. Carla asked if I was okay with taking Glinda's place for the morning and being in charge (so to speak). That was okay. I now have a 2nd kiddo who's "stuck" to me...Jeremias. He's generally a happy little boy whose mom is not here (so not one of the teen moms kiddos). Whenever I sit down, he runs over to sit on my lap. It went well in the pavilion with the kids. Glinda came around lunch time and took over putting the kiddos down for a nap.

This evening I had a chat with Doris (one of the big girls that I've known for the past 7 years). She has a good friend, Beth, who just came in today with her husband. Beth is from the U.S. and has been working to get Doris' papers fixed so that she can come up to the States from November to February on a visit. Doris is pretty excited about that, but also nervous in a way.
This evening when we got back to our room, there were 2 places in the bathroom where ants were coming and going. I knew there was a reason why I had kept the duct tape from our team...it's to patch up those holes to keep the ants in the ground and not in the rooms!!! Ugh, yuck.
