Back to School!

It was back to school for Kees this morning bright and early!
He was excited to get back to see his friends and teachers. The parents stayed for a while in the class this morning. The kids all went around and told their names...each child was being shy after being away for the summer. I noticed one little boy (same age as Kees) crossing his arms. Then the boy shouted out frustrated at how slow the name game was going, "If this is going to take any longer than I'm going to go home!" It was pretty funny. Anyway Kees had a great day back. You can keep Kees in your prayers... going to school in a language that is not your first language can't be easy. Kees told me that he hurt his hand on the playground and prayed for Jesus to make it better. I'm pretty sure praying is not something the teachers or kids ever see so Kees is also learning that not everyone prays or knows Jesus. 
 So proud of Kees!
