life over the last few weeks has been very hectic. i've been pulling 60 hour weeks. wow. we've been to the jungle, Mindo, a little town about 2 hours away. while there we went ziplining, hiking to a waterfall, and white water rafting. it was absolutley incredible!
the ziplining was a thirteen zipline course, and there were babes that worked there (i'm having boy withdrawls, ha!). the course ran over the jungle, over the canopy, it was beautiful! we then hiked to a waterfall, through the jungle. after that we white water rafting, it was a interesting, yet thrilling experience to say the least. it was a great day trip.
now moving on... life here is great. i'm used to being here, i've come to realize how much i really do love these children. i don't even know how to explain it. we took the babies on a field trip to go swimming, on the way home, the little girl i took fell asleep on my lap, i can't explain the feeling i had. these children love everyone, a love that i've never felt. i guess i felt the love of a mother... they are amazing!
i've come to love the girls i live with more and more. yes i have had many frustrations with the way they may treat the others in the house, but i've tried to do my part in being a good roommate and friend. i've definitely learned some patience. our "old girls" leave tomorrow morning early, and "new girls" come tonight. i'm nervous for new girls, but i will know how they feel, i've been in their position. it's my goal to welcome them, make them feel good here, unlike i was treated. i will miss the girls i've been here with. i've made new friends.
well i'm half way. been here five weeks today. craziness. life is good.
