Life continues to be rich and full. Today I was reading about how we have been made ALIVE through Christ, and there is no darkness in us. I pray I will never get tired of thinking about this! This week I will be teaching two subjects, Bible and Science, and working on keeping on top of other things I need to get done too.
It's amazing how similar São Paulo is to Boa Vista but also how very different it is too. We were driving back from the mall on Saturday night, and as we drove past, I realized how much bigger and more varied it is. There are so many neighborhoods, and only a few streets are familiar so far. In Boa Vista, it was easy to recognize what part of town we were in, but here, it takes some effort to think about where we are, since "downtown" is such a relative term here.
Today was a great day, though I was kind of tired from skyping with Mom, Dad, Melissa and then Nelton, Bethany and Aulo all together last night. So wonderful but it took me a while to fall asleep after all that talking. It is so nice to be in the sunshine. Today was particularly hot, and the only relief I got was jumping into the pool for a while. There is no better feeling than all the heat washing away right when you get into the water. :)
Tonight Sarah and I had leftover shepherd's pie I made yesterday and watched "Skylark" which I haven't seen in years. So fun! I managed to get some stuff done while we we watched too, since I've seen it before.
Better head to bed so I'm not as tired tomorrow :)
