I've been in CA for a week and a half now and today, finally made it to the ocean!!! Time has gone fast and I've been keeping somewhat busy. I joined the church's gospel choir with my sister and sang the first sunday with out even practicing! I am also helping my sister lead the 5 & 6th grade art class for the after school kids...much fun! I've gone to work with my sister and helped out with what ever is needed. I've also been doing a lot of reading and cooking. On Friday, I was really missing everyone in Chicago and feeling kinda crazy about the whole leaving everything thing and was cheered up by a call from Angelic( one of the girls in Chicago)!!! I was talking to her on the drive way of my sister's (my phone doesn't work well in her house) and then as we were finishing, some of the kids from the house a couple doors down were walking home from school and stopped to sit on the driveway with me and tell me about school and other stuff (they are a hispanic family with ten kids and come over all the time)! I'm glad that God knows what will cheer us up and brighten our day! I'm also liking the whole palm trees everywhere thing and all the sunshine.
