Family finally reunites

Note: This blog is for Monday July 18

Unfortunately, I had to wake up this morning. But I was excited because I knew I was on education duty and I was so excited to see the kids again. Education is so much fun because it is awesome to see the kids progress and the beautiful smiles on their faces when they get it right. On the flip side, it is also very frustrating when the kids don't understand what they are monotonously reading the words. Or when they can't figure out their math. As a tutor, it is frustrating knowing they could do better if their story problems were about rice fields instead of golfers or rupees instead of dollars. It would be great if the workbooks could be altered to fit their life style...because really, these kids have never seen snow so they have no idea what to picture when they read books about the snowy mountain in gingerbread man. I got mostly the same kids for education so I remembered their names and I could see how they progressed in just a week. I saw my favorite little boys Michael and Smiley (I found out his name is Ruthish) and they were so excited to see me! Ah I love them so much they are adorable! I ate lunch with my family again, yes with my hands, and I got the super hot chilli in my curry so I put it on Theethe's plate, she passed it to Megala, she passed it to Mr. Brenan who passed it to Ravathi and it got back to me somehow. It is so funny the little games these cute kids play. Soccer during play time was the best! I had Michael tickling me as much as he could and he's not one of those kids you laugh when they tickle you because you're supposed to even if it doesn't tickle, he is good at it and I collapse on the field. Ruthish get's jealous and climbs on me for attention. So cute.
For family time I decided to bring along some Uno cards and teach them how to play!

They did great and we had so much fun even though the power kept going out. None of us wanted to quit playing and go to bed but we knew we would have no energy for the next day if we didn't and I knew I would need all the energy I could get for construction. Goodnight and wish me luck!
