   As I write this blog I am sitting in my sister and brother in laws house.  Beside me is Fabian with this hideous orange tube in which he intends to cover the cords of our computers becaues his new kitten has taken a liking to chewing them.  He couldn't understand why Carmen and I laughed and didn't like the idea.  In the kitchen Carmen is busy helping her boys with their homework.  Its sunday afternoon and I am once again so exhausted.  I can't sleep at night which is doing a great toll to me during the day.  This morning I was awaken by a lady knocking at my door asking me to help in the cuna, which is the nursery.  I had to toss some church clothes on and quickly go to help.  I got the four boys ready for church and then at 9:30 we filed into the bus for church.  The service was really good and I was very thankful that Carmen was translating so I actually understood it.  I was in charge of our four little boys from the cuna during church and they did quite well.  Luis our 18 month old fell asleep in my arms and proceeded to sweat all over me.  My looks have no hope here I have come to realize.  I am always sweaty and I don't put any effort into looking nice.  My clothes are always filthy from the children, yesterday we had to be all dressed up for a big party here and before it even started Luis peed all over me.  I didn't even care and just stayed in my pee clothes for the rest of the night.  Now I am watching a 15 month old little girl named Celena and she ate speghetti today and so of course now I have that all over my church clothes.  Oh well.  So yes things here are going great.  I am struggling through my spanish but I am learning more and more which is good. 
 
   Please pray for me that I would catch on to the language quickly.  Also please pray that I would be used of God here and be able to serve as best as I can here.  Lastly...I could use prayer for some sleep.  I hate to be slow and out of it during the day so I must learn to sleep better at night.  Thank you all for everything.  God bless you.
