Made it through the 1st week!
Well, I made it through the 1st week and have lots of mosquito bites to prove it! This week has been pretty hectic getting to know everyone as well as the city itself. The house that I am staying at has the Internet but it is very finicky so writing on the blog is harder than expected. The highlight of this week happened today after school- coloring with a girl in my class, Anlelly, who has been taken out of her home because of abuse. She finally opened up hugging me tight and calling me maestra ( teacher). I really felt God's presence during those 20 minutes, it is very hard to describe but was really amazing.
