This morning we got to meet the kids!!! As we arrived the children came running down the stairs to great us in our vans (no crazy bus today). It was the warmest welcome I have ever received. The children greeted us by saying “Hah-lo” and “Welcome” When we shook their hands they would smile and run away. I just wanted to hug every single one of them! After our amazing greeting we attended a church service filled with singing and dancing (videos to come when I am back in the US). The children taught me how to sign my name, showed us their rooms/bathrooms/classrooms and invited us to join them for lunch (rice and beans). I am so excited to see the children tomorrow and find out who I will be teaching with!
