Bridal Shower

Bridal Shower

 

The Little Flock threw Latrina a bridal shower before she tied the knot in August. The little kids brought her little gifts and when she walked into the room, they stood up to sing a song. For them, it was all about winning prizes after answering questions. They forgot it was a party, to celebrate Latrina, and started to compete for prizes.

Ousheng

This is Ousheng, one of my colleagues at Mary Mitchell. She is the one who supplies the center with interns from  nearby high school.

When we met, she told me the unusual story of how she was named Ousheng. Her parents wanted to give her a name related to her Asian culture as well as American sounding. Thus, they created Ousheng, which is pro-nounced,Ocean, but spelled O-U-S-H-E-N-G. Maybe this is common but this was the first time I heard of something like this.

She also has a very unique style of dressing. Take note of her skirt with the huge pockets in the back. It also has a weird zipper that kind of closes the skirt in the back and opens the skirt in the front.

Pen-Pal Day

Pen-Pal Day

 

Before I left to Argentina, I was able to pull together another pen-pal day for my students and the children’s choir at my church. It was a success and we had a blast!

 

Thanks to all the parents, Bishop Green, my sister in Christ, Latrina Newton  and my supervisor,  Miss Lurgen, for all their support.

Therese & Torria

 

This is a picture of two of my good friends. Torria, whom I love dearly. I love to just sit and talk to her. Her advice is always valuable. And the other is  Therese who finally came to church! If you go back on my blog to last year May 2013 you will see us when we first met at the museum. We’ve been close friends ever since.
