Best day yet!!!

Today was a success!!! We went on a quest for butterflies! Our unit the past two weeks has been the life cycle of a butterfly so I decided to wrap it up by seeing a real one. I didn't really expect to find one because I've never noticed one here, but we found FOUR today!!! Tell me that wasn't divine intervention. Wow.

The kids stayed with me the whole time and chased after me instead of me chasing them. And their faces were priceless. They were all so excited. (Check out facebook to see the pictures.) What a rewarding day. Today was the best day I've had in China, even before I began teaching. PTL. I think He's making me a teacher afterall :)

On another positive note, I'm going to be traveling to Guilin this weekend. We have the next week off for National Day. Six of us are taking a train tomorrow evening, sleeping on the train, then touring Guilin for two days. We are staying in a hostel Saturday night, then traveling back on the sleeping train again on Sunday night. I'm so excited. It's cooler in Guilin which will be welcomed with open arms, and what I can tell from pictures it's gorgeous! Look it up. I'm so blessed. A hundredfold indeed.

I just tried to put a picture with this post. I have no clue if it worked because everything is in Chinese. Hope it did though :)

I love you all. I can't wait to tell you all about Guilin! PEACE!
