sunny days ahead!

Slowly, surely, the weather is improving!

Although how can I say improving, when it's already beautiful almost every day...despite the odd duststorm here and there.

The sun is finally rising early again! which means no more dark mornings when we get on the bus at 6:15am. It makes waking up early a whole lot easier. And I've really missed it a lot. Though it will be a few more days before I take morning walks again; it's still a (chilly) 10C in the mornings... I know, I know. I'm a wimp. But what can I say? We've been spoiled this year.

Although we have been missing out on prime snow-days back home ;)

Classes went relatively well this week! They started off in a bad way, but by the end of the week, things improved greatly. Like a little sunshine in the midst of a storm. I like it. And I'll enjoy it as long as it lasts. It's funny when God answers prayers, just when we feel like giving up hope. There were two this week: to make me feel better about my classes (amen!) and that I feel His hugs when I need them...which is when the students come to class as the "hug fairy" and give everyone a hug. It seems silly, but it really makes me smile!
