Good moments

So a couple memorable moments from this last week.

Funniest: Tonight I walk into one of the boys houses to find a couple of them "doing homework" this homework entailed looking through a magazine to find products starting with "o" and "u".  However the magazine they were looking through was a fashion magazine and they were spending inordinate amounts of time looking at the female models in dresses and skirts.  When I called them on it they threw up the biggest grin I've seen from any of them and said..."shhhh don't tell mom" and we all just busted up laughing.

Proudest: I got a late start one day picking up the kids from school.  The van's tire was flat so I had to put air in it, then halfway down the driveway I realized I left my documents in my room so I had to drive back and get them.  These things combined put me a good 10 minutes behind my usually scheduled departure time, however I still made it to the school in time to pick up the kids.  I drove like a true Peruvian that day.

Most heart-warming:  Earlier this week when I went to go pick up the special needs kids from school I was sitting and watching the other kids come out.  There was a sweet little girl probably around 6 or 7 years old that was waiting by the door.  An older boy with downs syndrome walked out of the gate and she immediately walked up to him grabbed his hand and said "Hi big brother, did you have a good day today?  Lets go home." then she lead him by the hand down the street.
