Happy Wan Valentine!
Happy Valentine's Everybody! We love you Masts! Love you Rhodes'! Love you Moroccans! Love you supporters and friends! We celebrated today with Grandma Mast's pink balloons and making red jello hearts. Claire made a card for her Daddy and even wrote "I love you" for the first time. Tom brought home roses and books for all his girls. Tonight our English students Oay and Neno and kids joined us for spaghetti and meatballs. It was the very first spaghetti Neno had tasted, so a quite ordinary American meal was pretty exotic to them! Other strange farang (foreign) customs we introduced them to...holding hands and singing for prayer, passing dishes, using salad plates and candy message hearts. Even the bread and salad were pretty foreign! It was a really fun experience and we laughed about all our differences.

Claire up bright and early to make jello hearts. Thank you Grandma Mast for sending the jello! It was a lot of fun!

Exotic spaghetti sounds like fun! You could have really messed with your guests' minds by mixing the jello hearts into the spaghetti stacks.:). Belated Happy Valentines...I love you Candice, Tom, Claire, and Eliza!
