Hi everyone! Look how cute my little friend is! Progress report: we are now up to catching I would say around 20 mice, and so you would not think I was making up all these stories about mice I took a picture of one of our furry friends who was tempted by the peanut butter and got stuck on the glue paper! This week God has been slowing me down. The deaf have told me mulitple times you walk so fast you are always going, and I honestly didn't think much of it I just like to keep going if there are things to do. This past week the kids had exams all week and so my routine was thrown out the window since exams took presidence over everything else. Instead I was given the job of reconstructing and retyping report cards for the kids here and they don't simply have one report card they have 3 different ones. They have one for pre primary, primary, and vocational. Since I was the lucky one who they appointed the job to and I am computer dumb it took me a good 3 days of doing nothing but sitting at my computer working with both microsoft word and excel trying to get these report cards done. I would work with one program a while until I would get stuck and frustrated then move to the other program and repeat the process until finially I completed the report card in one of the programs. Cali is here visiting for a few weeks. She is a girl from Washington state. She has just graduated and is learning some sign so she wanted to come and visit for a few weeks. This is her first time in Jamaica and at CCCD so she has been tagging along with me when she is not helping Mrs. Jones. God is using Cali to help me with my hostessing. This has never been an area that I have felt like I did a very good job in so I feel like he is giving me practice before work team season hits and we will be doing nothing but hosting team after team after team! I am so excited to get ready to work with the work teams and to meet all those from all over who are here to serve God. Ok the kids should be out and about now so I need to go spend some time with them. I love you and miss you all. be blessed and be a blessing. -Erin

I kinda like mice. They bring back fond memories of growing up on the farm. Like that one time that I was in the bathroom and one ran over my foot....
