It is fun watching games with Karla and Jose. Each time Honduras scores a goal we scream until our voices are hoarse and we run around the house, jumping on the furniture. Hahaha! Now Dana Sofia is old enough to do it with us, but mostly she looks at us like we're crazy. Poor Valery was asleep but our screaming woke her up and she sat in a daze, eating chips for the rest of the game.
Jose and I are going this afternoon to buy tickets for a home game on Tuesday!!!!! I am really excited. I think I am going to buy an official jersey if I can afford it. I hope the tickets don't sell out now, since they won last night!
The official Day of the Child is next Tuesday, but the First Lady's sister came yesterday to celebrate with our kids from The Breakfast Program. She brought 4 piñatas and a big toy for each child. Plus we had birthday cake. The wife of a guy who is running for president also came. I asked who she was and was told she is the wife of "Papi a la Orden" which is his campaign slogan. It means his nickname is Papi and he is "at your service". Kind of a funny slogan I think.
I wasn't aware they were coming yesterday so I didn't bring a camera and my phone was almost dead. I got a few pictures but couldn't upload them. The kids had a great time and were very well behaved. We had a few party crashers (local kids who only come to the Breakfast Program when they hear there will be gifts), but that is to be expected. Only the kids who come every day got the special presents.
I am off to the mall to buy tickets for the game. The ladies of the Breakfast Program have declared me officially lice free. I really wanted a picture of them - 3 of them sitting around me on the steps of the church pulling my head onto their laps and digging through my hair. I find it hard to believe that I could be lice free. It seems too soon. But they are definitely experts and I am not itching like before. I will still follow up with the shampoo next week and continue to use the special comb each time I shower.
