On to Bigger and Better Things (like 1st Grade)

Carey's preschool just celebrated their first ever graduation! Eighteen students from the Susanna Wesley Preschool graduated at a very special ceremony held recently in Camanchaj. Decked out in robes and homemade construction paper hats with tassels, the students received their "diplomas" from a very proud Directora.

One of our honor students, Jennifer Karina, looking ready for first grade, which she'll start in February at the Camanchaj public school.

The parents presented a special gift to the preschool, which will hang outside of the classroom for years to come as a reminder of our first graduating class.

Karla Alessandra and mother, Kristina, one of our lab techs, pose for a picture after graduation. Carey printed family photos on the spot with a printer donated by one of our medical teams. The families were thrilled!

Our last day of school! Carey and preschool teachers, Mary and Paulina, will miss this great group of students dearly, but they are so proud of all they have accomplished this past year...

Happy Thanksgiving!
May each of you continue to be blessed with health, peace, and most importantly, friends and family that love and care for you.
Dios Les Bengida,
Jay & Carey
