Dayana’s birthday party

Dayana’s birthday party
Jedadiah was the only male and the only English-speaking classmate to be invited to Dayana’s birthday party. We arrived promptly at 4:00 and saw that the party had already begun.  The kids really enjoyed splashing in the heated Jacuzzi and later playing beyblade and other games with Dayana’s cousins. Dayana’s parents are hospitable and congenial.  Another classmate was in attendance too, so Khin and I had a wonderful conversation with Diana’s dad and mom.  I felt so blessed to see a glimpse into the real lives of two of the families from Jedadiah’s class.  We will be together with these families for the next 8 or so years, so I think it is essential to attend any functions when we are invited.  Dayana is a sweet girl, who apparently is not “bossy” like many of the other girls in his class, according to Jedadiah. This night will be one to remember; as it was the first party we attended hosted by a Spanish-speaking classmate.
