Yup,
It’s been a really long time. We have been crazy busy. Jim likes his new job.Right now he is in San Diego. We all miss him. My mom and dad have been staying with us for several days now. We are really enjoying the time together. I am doing fine. Really busy, working several jobs. I like them but it feels like a lot.
Yamile is doing really well. She loves her new school and her English is awesome now. She really enjoys her class. There are lots of kids from different countries so she is learning a lot about other cultures and is helping the teacher by translating for some of the kids who speak Spanish. Her report card was great and so has her behavior been. Her classroom is so creative. Every week they learn a different poem and the one teacher brings in a guitar and teachers the kids English through songs. Yamile loves “this land is your land” She loves lunch especially the “fish sandwich” She talks about it a lot. She also loves going to the school library. She really enjoyed her first her first field trip. They went on the city bus to the local farmers market and bought pumpkins and gourds which they decorated.
Jorge is doing well too. Jorge likes his school but he has some trouble focusing. He loves school actually especially his friends. He really likes his field trips as well. We have gone to the pumpkin patch and to a nature perserve. He like both but loved riding the school bus.
Good night and God Bless,
Gina
