Playing with Scissors

God has given us so many blessings this week, especially today. First of all, there is a hair-stylist on the team. Which is AWESOME because Kyle's hair really needed to be cut, and I needed a professional lesson! So, after spending the morning at Hogar de Ninos playing with the kids and watching the team practice their marching for a parade tomorrow, I watched her cut a few of the kids hair from across the street. Then, she offered to teach me how to cut Kyle's hair! So she cut one side, and I cut the other with her guidance. It looks SO much better! Now I think I will be able to cut Kyle's hair and it won't look like he got hit by a lawn mower :) So excited!

On another note, one of the team members is a pediatrician...so, I asked her to take a quick look at my clogged up ear. She cleaned it out a little with some cutips and then put some medicine drops in it. Hopefully, once the medicine is evaporated, my ear will be clear again! Maybe I will actually be able to hear again?!?

So, the Lord has answered my prayers for a nurse or doctor to be on this trip...now I might be able to hear people the first time, and not feel like I'm under water. I'll be able to enjoy it here so much more! Wahoo!!! :)

AND get THIS....while making dinner the other night (Monday), I had marinated chicken breasts in Italian dressing ALL day. And I wanted to bake it in a glass baking dish that we had been using. After it had been in the oven for a while, Ansley and I heard this loud crack! The flames on the burners went crazy, so I rushed to turn everything off. Next, I opened up the oven, and inside, I found our glass dish, separated and cracked into many pieces with all of the chicken inside :( It was so weird. Shouldn't a glass baking dish be able to be in the oven at high temperatures?! Anyway, we ate the chicken anyway and we are still alive. Well, I didn't eat it because I was scared...But I heard that it was still good! Ha. Hopefully that never happens again.

Eating pizza for dinner tonight with the rest of the Child Reach leadership people...I'm guessing it could be a late night. We also were invited to eat dinner with the team tomorrow and Friday night! So we won't have to cook for a few days :) Yay!
