Hey y'all! It is Miller Crenshaw
Hey mom, hey dad, miss you so much! It is Thursday the 14th and it is our 4th day at the camp. This morning we woke up and we split up in to our two groups. One group taught in the school and the other, that I was in, went to the worksite. It is so dusty in the worksite, I am another color when I come out of there. My favorite thing to do is use the hoe to breakup the dirt so that we can level the ground. We finally finished leveling out the ground and then we took a break when the kids at school took a break from class. It is so much fun and inspiring to watch these kids play and run around. We brought bubbles today just like we have every other day that we have played with them and they have yet to get bored with them. They are so happy all the time that you just can't help but to smile. After break was over the kids helped all of us bring rocks from throughout the area to put inside the worksite. This was really chaotic because all the kids wanted to help and there were rocks being thrown everywhere! Finally, we finshed with the floor and got to go to lunch, I almost fell asleep at the table because I was so warn out and it seemed everyone else was to because we all fell asleep for about three hours after lunch. After the nap we went to the “bomas” and learned how to dance with all the mamas. This was an experence I will never forget. All the girls were given the big neckless and tought how to jump and dance with them. At one point they wanted us to sing an “American song” for them, they only song we all knew was “party in the U.S.A and Hit Me Baby One More Time” this was pretty funny if you can imagine. Then finally the men came in and danced, sang and jumped with us. To watch all the community together is so beautiful, they are always happy, telling you Jumbo when ever you pass. I am having a great time and loving everything that I am experiencing! Can't wait to see everyone when I get home!
Love you Family!
Miller
