Xavier LOVES watching Tom and Jerry! He makes me laugh after Tom gets his tail blown off, or gets trapped in a sardine can, yelling out “Impossible!”
Angela did a wonderful job on her "food day" in her language class by bringing some foods from Germany. She and her dad made Apfelstrudel and Lebküchen. They were delicious, made a lot, and her teacher was pleased. Angela didn't want to take the cookies, though... She really liked them. But, since they DID make 109, we insisted she take most of them!
Lizet's P.E. teacher informed me that she is the best archer in class. Hmmm... It must be all those days of watching and re-watching Robin Hood: Men in Tights. This has become one of her favorite movies. Thanks so much, Mel Brooks. She even dances along with them!
The other night, all three asked if I would come read the Bible with them. They love the book of Revelation. We read a little and they started asking questions about who goes to Heaven. I told them the only way to get to Heaven is to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior.
After making egg tortillas for their breakfast the other morning, Lizet wrapped her arms around my waist and said in Spanglish: "You are la mejor madre en el universo, mi favorita madre, I love you." I guess she really liked her breakfast!
Saturday night we had dinner at La Fiesta. A song was playing they all recognized, but they didn't know the name. Leave it to Lizet to call a waiter over to ask... He told her and they began a conversation. The next thing we know, we're surrounded by four other waiters being entertained by Lizet! I don't think we'll worry about her getting dates... Well, actually, we will. When we were leaving, Lizet informed the waitress that she loves Mexican food so much that we are coming back in January for her birthday lunch and then to Señor Salsa for her birthday dinner. She laughed and said, "Wow! Competition!"
