I am getting busier each week with little things here and there. I am still teaching English to two women at their office one time a week (we had to move it to one day as opposed to two because they don't have the time for two lessons right now). I am also doing a language exchange with one of Eric's aunts. Flor comes over one morning a week and we talk in English one hour and Spanish the next. It's great, because this is a time where I can be corrected and really learn to speak better. I am learning a lot by just living life here, but I don't often get corrected and I know I use a lot of incorrect phrases. I am also helping my friend Ina out with her ministry in the village of Cercadillo. Take a look at her website to see more about what's happening in Cercadillo. For now I am helping her with little tasks to get a co-op started selling handcrafts the women in her village are learning how to make, like necklaces and bags. It's a really amazing ministry she has to these women and I want to spend more time telling everyone about it in greater detail, so I am going to wait and make it it's own post.
I'll leave you with a couple of pics of our boy who is really growing up so fast. He is talking up a storm, some words in English, some in Spanish and a lot in his own language still. He is becoming very energetic little guy and I am trying to keep him stimulated when we are cooped up in the house. We can go outside to play when the sun isn't overhead, but it's basically in the parking lot of our apartment and it's so dirty (I mean filthy, greasy black dirt that I have to scrub off) that I have to pop him in the bath immediately when we get back upstairs. Yesterday we played outside and when we came back up we discovered we didn't have any water! Hopefully we can get to the park to run out some energy today because it's one of my days to have a car.
Eric had a little too much fun combing little E's hair into what he called "The Donald"...as in Trump, if you couldn't guess.
Have a good weekend everyone!
