Speaking of the Kids....

These aren't the same school kids that mobbed us for autographs back in May ... but pretty close! Although Michael suggested that this meant we were famous, I think that the word novelty would work even better! Just to be a little bit different, at the end of this particular visit, these students made each of us [we were three foreign visitors] dance with a feather boa on a little stage while they clapped and sang! Ah, the things they don't teach you during pre-posting training -- the tax-payers may scoff, but obviously these are skills we need to know! As a follow-up to the Fearing Small Children post, I thought that I should post something kid-positive. These teens are part of one of our projects in a local public school which teaches leadership and responsibility. I'll just say that these kids are an impressive bunch and leave it at that! Hopefully they will all do well wherever their paths may take them.
