I had a wonderful time tonight. I still love France! I want this group. I felt absolutely wonderful and so comfortable there. Like I said, if it were a perfect world and I got everything that I wanted, I would get this group. I didn't finish my craft here because we were talking so much.
I still loved Canada. Actually, I loved them more than last night. The girls that I met both came and found me to say hello, which was really sweet. I talked to the most people here.
I actually enjoyed Ireland this time. The girl I talked to was really really sweet, and the conversation wasn't forced at all. I was pretty comfortable here tonight, and I think that I could be happy here, but they're not my first choice.
As it stands now, I'm ranking them
1. France
2. Canada
3. Ireland
Here are the activities (in no particular order.)
KD - we made little buckets with stickers, candy, pencils, and wrote little notes for the children they would go to.
XO - we made cute little felt puppets that will be sent to a couple of different places, one of which is St. Jude's in Memphis.
ADPi - we made little coloring books that had so many object with a lttle flap covering the number. These will go to the local head start program.
I would love to go back to all of these, and I feel like I really clicked with everyone tonight. Now, I'm just afraid I'll be cut because I'm so much older. Keep the encouragement coming! It's much needed, felt, and appreciated!!!
I get my invites tomorrow, but won't be able to post until tomorrow night.
