Me Gusta La Musica


Once a week, we bring it in the local kindergarten. English through songs and games. The 6 year olds can hang. The session with the 5 year olds is the most chaotic 25 minutes of each week. We learn songs like ¨Hello, What´s your name?¨, ¨Hi, How are you?¨, etc. Sometimes we rock Heads, Shoulders, Knees, & Toes or If You´re Happy and You Know It.


This pic is from back in December. We finally got it from a friend´s camera. This pic is killer. But that´s not our baby.


We helped bring a doctor from the health clinic to the high school for another charla about HIV-AIDS.


Move over Daddy Yankee!


These neighbor kids are the best. We try to play with them once a week. If we haven´t walked down to play for a while, they might climb up our window to see what´s up.

Okay. So. We have bats in our house. It´s common. In lieu of a backyard, many houses have patios in the middle. The hallways are all open to nature; the bedrooms are usually safe. The bats, vampire bats to be more precise, fly right over our heads during their trips to and fro the mango tree. Happens all the time. No big deal. One day last week, the woman we live with had a nice old man from the church come over to help out around the house. We were chatting. Then we saw a flying bat land on the hallway roof...but upside down, like in the cartoons. Now this is something we don´t see much. Kelly entered the room to grab the camera. The nice old man, perhaps interpreting Kelly´s exit as fear, casually picked up a broom and knocked the bat dead in one hit.
