Clowns and Marshmallows!

Los Payasos!

Last week, we had an amazing surprise for the students and families. There was a group of Italian clowns that visited Opal House and put on quite the show! There was a great turn out, and the children looked forward to this for weeks. The smiles on their faces were priceless. It was almost an hour long show, with a variety of small acts and different skits. Then, they even danced! It was a little different from most clowns I am used to seeing, with all the face make up, and balloon tying. It was unique, and such a fun opportunity for the children. 

Special Treat!

You can even roast marshmallows in Guatemala :-)

The kids were to excited to hear that we were going to be roasting marshmallows after lunch one day last week! They were such a mess, and loved it! Every day sharing new experiences and joy with these children is such a blessing. They truly do appreciate the little things in life.
