Well, things happen slowly in Mexico, I always have to remind myself to go with the flow...we haven´t gone to Neto´s Mom´s house yet, but we hope to go this Saturday. We´re trying to line up a loaner car, and the one we´re going to borrow needs the brakes redone - something worth waiting for when the mountain pass is officially called ¨La sepultura¨, or cemetery, because of the amount of people who have died falling over the cliffs around the curves! Brakes are good. We could just go on a bus this time, but I ALWAYS get sick in the curves and I´d hate to be miserable for 2+ hours with kids hanging on me too. I´m excited to see Neto´s family and our little plot of land. I guess they have planted jamaica, which is a flower they use to make juice, so they plan to sell it, I think. I think Eric and Anna will like a break from so many people. The girls here have finally realized that Anna is scared by so many people wanting to pinch her cheeks and pick her up. There´s a maintenance guy here who she´s afraid of and I feel bad because he´s so nice and a good person, but he has some odd manerisms.
My yarn is GONE and also all my knitting needles - at least I kept hidden the ones I´ll need for my own sweater and the shawl I´m making for Neto´s Mom. Now the little boys want to learn, so I´ll have to find a shop here to get some more scarf/hat yarn. The girls have made soem realyl cool scarves, and the director even suggested tome last night that we make a little business and sell them in the park in town. Maybe if I buy the yarn for the first batch and then we use $ from selling them to buy more yarn...we´ll see. It´s fun to see them so excited and proud of what they´ve made.
I´ll write after we come home from Neto´s - in the meantime I´d love to get an email at katielunabella@hotmail.com. Also visit Hogar´s website if you´d like to know more about this place that is so special to me and Neto: hogarinfantil.org.
Take care - Love, Katie
