Hello,
I hope that everyone had a great week. I have been tired majority of the week. After saying the night at the clinic, I never got my sleep back. Wednesday night our power went out in the middle of the night, and for some reason it woke me up. I have come down with a sinus infection, which makes me tired also. This week at school was a little rough. I am not yet callused to the kids and their unkind attitude. I think that God is not only teaching me more patience, but also to become stronger emotionally. I don't know what to do when a students constantly will not take his book out and tells me to leave them alone. It is frustrating to say the least, but I know it will get better as time passes. I was walking home tonight from dinner at the team house, and for the first time I looked up at the stars. Although I could not find the moon (sorry mom), they were so beautiful. The stars look really close, maybe because we are high up. In the morning I am going to Tegu. with one of the other girls. She has to take a girl to the clinic, so I am going to go along for the trip. We are leaving at 5 am, and walking to the bus. I think we are going to the mall, I am really excited!!!! Also, I want to tell my parents that Fanny got her tooth fixed. One of my dad's friends had a large chip on her front tooth. She would always put her hand in front of her mouth when she smiled, but not anymore. Please keep me in your prayers. Thanks!!! God Bless,
Lindsey

Way to go Fanny!! She looks beautiful. When did she get it fixed and who fixed it?? I HOPE YOUR TRIP TO TOWN MAKES YOU FEEL BETTER!! Keep up the great attitude and keep loving through their ugliness. They are probably testing you to see if you are going to give up on them like maybe there families did . These kids have issues like we do,but no one to really share them with or they may not eve know why they are hurting. Thank goodness God loves us when we act up, Keep up the great job and be careful in town. I love you , Mom
Lindsey, I can only imagine how tough this adjustment is for you. You are right where God wants you. KNOW THAT! I know sometime we think that when we are in the center of His will that things will be perfect and easy. It is not always that way but HE will sustain you through the tough times. I am preaching to myself too! God is enough! Hang in there. Keep going. Know that you ARE making a difference in these kids lives. They will feel your love which will be HIS love flowing through you. I am praying for you. Laurie Rogers
