Emily striking the “Soccer Player’s Pose”

She would only play with the pink ball this time. PINK is her favorite color!

Adeptly dribbling down the soccer field

She would strike the soccer player pose, look at me and then say, “READY”? Then she would kick the ball to me!

Max made 24 Valentines for each of his classmates (Polar Bears). They all were a little different. I drew the red heart & he did the rest! Here are some of the examples of his work:

Emily all the sudden noticed that the sheep was dirty! She is pointing to it saying, “Mommy, it’s dirty!!” :-)

It was a great afternoon! The kids had a wonderful time. Max kept saying, “I want to come back to the barnyard”.

Heifer International Learning Center is also present at Hidden Villa and provides educational programs that promote sustainable solutions to global hunger, poverty and environmental degradation.

Christian was pouty because he wanted to play “Paper Toss” on my iPhone and it wasn’t loading fast enough for him

Max was attempting to comfort Christian & make him feel better

Still very upset!

Paper Toss finally loaded and Christian opened my phone, found the application and immediately started playing with no help from me! This boy is going to hi-tech one day!
