From Mrs. Tonia
Kinsley, i am so proud of you and all the other kids for your bible reading!!! Thank you for the gentle reminder... it is not happening everyday... but thanks to you i will get back on track. We are on a very busy corner and the people here beep there horns CONSTANTLY!!!!! it is horrible, generally it quiets down between 11 and about 5 am, but when i get to my room i am lucky to have 10 minutes before i fall asleep.
i am going to try again and get back into my Bible. We are working very hard, and Dannette, i definitely see you building, but also getting very involved with VBS, these are such precious children you will love them as much as they will love you.
learn spanish!!!! Tell mom i miss her too!! Monica, your turn will be here before you know it~
DAVID, i got kicked out of the internet cafe last night... i know you know how long those Tony Roma dinner's can be!!! I ate some extra ribs just for you. Sorry i missed calling you, this has been quite a smooth trip so far, keep praying for the same. Don't get me wrong, you know we have had our challenges, but really the best trip!!! I was able to work with Casey and CJ today, your dad joined us, and we had our house done in 3 hours, as did Rick's crew. Not bad for a days work.
I know you are missing us as much as we miss having you here, right now all the kids and some of the adults went to BAXTER to play soccer. So there is some quiet time at the hotel. Everyone except our 2 groups went to limoncello today, the bus driver got a bit lost and the 2 hour trip took a bit more than that, but everyone came back, so glad that they got to experience that beautiful countryside.
MOM, hope you can have a relaxing weekend, tell daddy and the kids we all love and miss them and YOU!! Tonia

Tonia, thank you so much for posting the photo of PJ hugging the homeowner. I felt like I was there hugging them both and crying along with them!

I also felt like I was there to hear Eddie's roar of laughter in the photo of him holding the hammer.

Love ya"ll and miss you....
