Graduation is coming

Yes, graduation is coming but this first picture is Sinilda, who has jsut learned to read this year with our two kindergarten kids. She was reading to them but I didn't get a picture of that as Evelia wanted to be the center of attention. Karla and Evelia are holding their babies. Sinilda and her sister Maria are the first woman to learn to read in their family.
Graduation from 9th grade here includes each student painting a picture an a school uniform shirt and then getting autographs. This is Leonela with hers.
Yeri showing off her shirt. Yeri has lived at the home for almost all her life. She is 15 and graduating from 9th grade. I have the reading book she learned from in 1st. grade.
Leo with the autographs. She said there was not enough room to fit all of them.
Estefani, Maria Isabel, Evelia and Guiselle (Estefani's older sister) and others waiting to go to see a movie last Saturday.

School is over on the 14th of December and the graduation at 7AM on the 21. We have two big events before that - a quincenera next Saturday (watch for pictures here) and a concert on the 19th. There will also be Christmas parties, our Christmas party and more.
