Merry Christmas Everyone!!! 13 days until we leave for the Dominican Republic. I am very excited to go and still cannot believe we are going in just 13 days. I have enjoyed getting to know the girls in our cohort and am beyond excited to share this experience with them. Some things I have been doing to prepare for the trip is digging up all of my summer clothes out of the back of the closet, searching for sun tan lotion in the middle of December and trying to prepare for bathing suit weather! yikes.... Few things I look forward to while in the DR would of course be our work with the Montessori, observing schools and children from another country and living situations, and learning Spanish. I am a little nervous about the language barrier, because I am not the quickest person when learning a second language. It will be nice to learn it and then practice it that same day in the community. Anyways, I hope everyone has a great Christmas and a safe and wonderful New Years!!:)
Happy Holidays and see you in the DR!
