Elementary's Filipinania Week (a celebration of our "host" culture) begins on Monday and as part of the Ministry Day in the middle of the week the older grades are taking food and school bags full of stationery to flooded areas. Rose wanted to join the preliminary packing this afternoon, so we all went up and took part in filling bags with food. It was fun. We took a bag and walked round in a circle past different "stations", collecting an item of food. Then Bonnie and I took Joshua and Naomi outside to the circle so Josh could ride his bike and Naomi climb the big rocks. Rose was more interested in staying inside as that's where everyone else was. She told me this week she wanted "lots of friends". Spoken like a true extrovert!
We decided to have Steve's family birthday tea tonight as we were going out tomorrow for dinner.
