Am boxing up about 40 boxes of Girl Scout cookies tonight to send to our favorite 2nd Lt (and friends) in Iraq. Hopefully they will arrive without too much breakage. Many very kind people donated a box or several boxes.
Hope this little touch of home brings some smiles to some far away Cookie Monsters!

A Couple of New Photos
Some current snapshots. I hope to have a new one to post of my student nurse (youngest daughter) soon.
We continue to tutor three nights a week. The Sunday night group is strictly an exercise in conversation. I try to find a short but interesting article to read out loud to the group and then we talk about it. Last week's group was comprised of a Chinese couple, a Venezuelan lady, a Columbian lady and a Korean lady.
On Monday John had his regular Korean lady and I had a lady from Haiti. My student needed help to count American money. We played "store" for 2 hours. Her English is quite limited but I felt she really needed to work on survival skills first - like maybe grocery shopping!
