Things around here have REALLY picked up, and we are all so busy that I hardly have time to update! Have patience, eager readers! English lessons have gone really well this week. I am beginning to get comfortable with all of my students and it is getting easier to have more meaningful conversations. Alessandro and Manuela are both sick this week, so please keep them in your prayers. I have 3 new students that I will tell you more about as I learn more about them. Sabrina studied with me for the first time yesterday. She seems very sweet and interesting. She studied in Paris for a while and is an architect! Matteo is Lisa's brother, and Rina's son. He and his girlfriend, Sarena, are planning to come for a lesson on Monday. The other student is a girl about my age from Romania. She works in a restaurant that David often goes to, and expressed an interest in studying. I have not met her yet, but she is planning to come on Tuesday.
It is getting quite chilly here in Florence, and I have heard that it is the same there in Memphis. I absolutely love this time of year because of all of the holidays coming up. It's exciting to see all of the preparations being made. It's neat to notice the similarities between here and there.
I hope you are all doing well. I miss you all so very much, and can NOT wait to see you all during Christmas! I want to congratulate Paul and Ericka Maple (my cousins) on their brand new beautiful baby, Elizabeth Blake! Also, congratulations to Nick and Amanda McNabb (also cousins:) on the baby they are expecting!
