Update on FloreSer

We've also kept our days busy over the past 3 months here in Maz with visits to FloreSer. In case you don't remember, this is the teenage girl's home here in Mazatlan. Please click on this link for a little info on the purpose of the home.

We've been spending time helping them with their English. They're like little sponges, so eager to learn. They do take some English classes in school but not one-on-one. So they have an opportunity with us to ask questions on what they really want to know in English. Like for instance, today, they wanted to know if boys were beautiful. Of course, we said they were not. We explained the word in English was handsome or guapo in Spanish. So it's been very interesting working with them and so rewarding too. We've even been learning some Spanish ourselves. Also, today, Greg put up a volleyball net for them. The home, they moved into recently, has a tennis court in the backyard but they had expressed they'd like to play volleyball. After quite a search, Greg found a sporting goods store that did have a net and ball. They were very surprised and happy when Greg put it up for them today.

This is a recent picture of the girls in their new home.
