Día de la Amistad

¡Hola Amigos!
¡Feliz día de la Amistad! Happy Valentine’s Day! In El Salvador Valentine’s Day is so much better because it’s the day of friendship, not romantic love. I like this concept so much better. It’s a day to celebrate friends…candy, red hearts, and stuffed teddy bears not included. I did make cards for Oti and Lolo and they gave each of us cards saying how grateful they are that we are part of the Mariona community.

We spent Wednesday playing with the kids at the parish again. I felt like the kids were extra wild. I got tackled, climbed on, jumped on, and ridden like a horse. (See pictures). Oti had to lecture a few of the boys about their bad behavior. They were being too rough on us. We only spent an hour there because I was getting attacked by little 5 year olds. I don’t do well with children.

Paz,
Stephanie
