We are learning Spanish, or trying to do so at least. Everyone is challenging me to learn and God has blessed me with the hunger and desire to learn Spanish. Random words in Spanish are even popping into my head now before their English counterparts. The one phrase that I overuse, and will probably soon tire of, is “Como se dice...?” In translation, this means “How do you say…?” We visited another school here in Sebeco today which is run by the denomination we are working with this summer. Amber and I ‘talked’ with some children who were in computer class. They had to wait outside the classroom until their turn because there were only two computers; however it is a blessing for the school to have computers at all. Amber taught some boys the song “Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes” in English while some younger girls taught me the song in Spanish. I think that whole experience taught me that I would much rather learn Spanish than teach English. Amber definitely has a gift for teaching. The whole Spanish thing is coming along, but the more I learn, the more I realize how little I actually do know.
