God is so good to have blessed Brasil with such wonderful weather right now. I love it. Although, I have to confess, I do have allergies here too. I thought they were bad in Canada, but I didn't get them until late June and July. Unfortunately, I have them now! Maybe they'll go away soon...I hope, because my eyes have been burning and my nose is sooooooooo itchy! It's absolute craziness!
Today was fun. I was able to help in most of the classes at the English school today, which was so awesome.
I did have something to tell you all, but now I forget. But I can tell you something else. I don't know if I told you what we eat for breakfast, but in case I didn't, I'll tell you now. We just have different kinds of breads, varies with the morning. And coffee, but, of course, I don't drink coffee, so I just drink water or juice. Andréa thinks it's awesome how in the United States(and Canada) have eggs and bacon and sausage for breakfast every morning. But, I know that my family sure doesn't have that for breakfast every morning, so I don't know how many other people eat that richly in the morning. It is soooooo good, though, to eat that for breakfast. But, I do like the breads they have here. There is one type in particular that I am going to miss for sure when I come back. It's called "Pão de Queijo" which just means cheese bread. However, it is totally different than the cheese bread we have at home, and each one is shaped in a little circle and is about 2 inches wide and about 1 1/2 inches thick. They taste the best warm, and they are so addictive. My favourite time is when we buy them for the afternoon at the English school, and we are all so hungry. They taste the best then.
ok, so maybe you do put sugar in the drink I was telling you about yesterday...truthfully, I don't know. You'll have to experiment.
Well, tonight I think that we're going to eat Chinese food, and I'm so excited!

Love, Ash :)

hi Ash
I am really enjoying your blogs!
They are most interesting and informative of the life you are living in Brazil.
I don't know if I said this before but you are having of a lifetime and you will look back on this time in years to come as a life changing experience.
I am sure that the children at your school are enjoying having you with them as much as you are enjoying them
Please tell your adopted family that we are praying for you and them every day.
We pray that you will soon have some relief from your allergies and that you can enjoy the time there without this added aggravation!
Till next lots of love from Pops
