The First Goodbyes

Hello again...
Yesterday we went to the Pink Kindergarten for the last time. Many of the kids are sweet, but saying goodbye was not hard- except perhaps for the realization that I will be saying goodbye to the BNC soon. Having only been to the Pink Kindergarten once a week, and even then not every week, I never really developed an attachment for the place. Plus, it was more of a school environment with me helping MB with crowd control and handing things out- I am not trained to teach and therefore was not that useful there to begin with. That being said, I did get to know a few of the kids there and I did have a nice time when I went. I invited Martha, the teacher there who is about my age, out to dinner last night to say goodbye. We had a nice time, and it was nice spending some time with her outside the classroom.
At the BNC we had a good day with computer games, soccer, and singing. Those kids are extra special and make every other program in Namibia seem boring. All the kids I invited to the airport have kept quiet and it looks like all 7 will be able to go with me. Little Esme is a doll... I am more and more impressed with her each and every day. In the evenings as I get on my bike to go home I first ride her a block away to her house. She is so cute the way she smiles the whole way and points her house out to me (even though I have brought her there 1,000 times) and then she jumps off the bike and goes running away laughing and smiling, forgetting to say goodbye! I will miss her a lot.
Hope all is well at home, have a great day!
