We've already done three weeks of school!!  We're studying China right now, and it's pretty fun, even for me!  The girls are as sweet as always, and still very eager to please.  I've started doing a lot of writing with the older two, and all four of us do theatre class together.  They're really enjoying it! I'm working on a play for us to perform for Christmas.
This weekend some of the Groen's friends are coming, because last Sunday Sadie turned 10!  So some friends are coming to celebrate, and then we don't have any more visitors until next month.  In November a group of 26 students from Harding in Arkansas are coming out for a couple days, and I may get to go on a safari with them!  I'm pretty excited about that.
Kate, the oldest girl, has started giving me Swahili lessons.  I'm learning greetings and responses, numbers, and some simple sentences.
Habari za asabuhi?  How is your morning?
Habari za mchana? How is your afternoon?
Habari za jioni? How is your evening?
Mimi- me
wewe- you
yeye-her/him

1: moja   2: mbili    3: tatu    4: nne     5: tano     6: sita     7: saba     8: nane     9: tisa     10: kumi
It's an easy language to learn!! All I need is vocab.
God bless you all!
