Next Trip!

Going back to Indonesia July 2009. With a small group from Los Angeles and a couple friends and sisters of those living in Indonesia, we are creating an entire curriculum! Some possibilities we hope to offer are:

Fine art/Crafts

Ballet/Hula dancing

Aerodynamics

Cooking

Creative writing

Photography

Music



We are beginning to coordinate fundraisers. If you can help in anyway, please let me know. We will need donations for travel expenses and supplies.



In just a couple months, I've been watching 18 month old Christopher grow up. (I babysit him every Thursday night.) He can now correctly match shaped blocks in to their coordinating holes. He no longer eats cheerios out of his protective-from-spills cup. And he is beginning to talk: Bye, Clock and Four are his favorite words so far.



I can just imagine how much kids at Rujak Berkah have grown since the Fall. I am super excited to return to them!

Finishing 30

Finishing 30 years today. I'm enjoying a fairly usual routine. Christopher's arriving. C: Planning for a trip back to Indo in July. More event planning with loved ones here. Simply celebrating.
