Going Well....

So, I have managed to make it through my first week at Winpenny School. It was been a whirlwind, but it has been a great week. I really love the other teachers. As far as the new English teachers, there are 4 of us from the states, 1 from England, 1 from Canada, and 1 from Scotland. We are all coming with varied teaching backgrounds and it has been really great getting to know them and working with them.
The kids are really neat. They are well traveled and speak very good English. They are very polite and we have a lot of parental support. The director of the school is amazing. She started the school with 5 kids and now has about 400 kids attending. She is very smart and has a clear vision for the students. I really feel blessed to have ended up somewhere so great!
Enrique and Gabriella are having a great time! Gabby started CRAWLING today! She only goes a few moves before she goes back on her tummy, but she is definitely moving her arms and legs and getting around! Give her another week........and she will be outta here! She is getting so big. Next week she will be 8 months already!
We are settling in nicely. Our little apt. is quite cute and we have gotten all the necessities. We are learning our way around and usually spend the weekends exploring. My Spanish is really beginning to improve and we are speaking it alot around the house. I am still sad that we cannot be a family in the United States, but I am glad we are here right now. It is a great place for our little family to be.
Hope all is well. Hugs and kisses....
