I started going
through some of the things that I’ve accumulated while I’ve been here and I
came across a list of things my students said to me last year. They were 7-8
years old. They seemed to always say the funniest things out of the blue! Here
are some of them:
§ Student
tells me, “Tomorrow you’re going to get married!” Another chimes in, “We’re
going to find you a husband!”
§ Student:
“What are you doing?”
Me: “Sweeping.”
Student: “Why?”
Me: “Because the
floor’s dirty.”
Student: (with
sincere disappointment) “Awww, man! I liked the floor dirty!”
§ “You don’t look like a teacher without your
glasses.”
§ (Defiantly)
“I’m not afraid of you!... (rethinking) But I am afraid of my dad….”
§ Student
1: “Camden, I don’t want you to die!”
Student 2: “But
she’s going to die!”
Student3: “Everyone’s
going to die!”
§ “You
sing pretty. You should stop talking and sing all the time!”
§ “Tomorrow
put on make-up. You look like the woman of the dead!”
Yep. They were a blast!
There’s
a lot going on around here as we’re getting ready to finish the school year. Also,
Word of Life Mexico just celebrated 30 years of ministry! I finished my online
university, so I’ve been able to head out on the weekends a little. Recently I
went to Jilotepec, Mexico and helped a little with their Compassion center and
Bible Club. It was great to meet other believers in another area of Mexico, but
I was super excited to share Christ with a little girl and then two teenage
girls and have them trust Him as their Savior! Praise Him!
