melissatwa's Journal, 29 Nov 19

I am so thankful for my blessings! Two turkeys, four loaves of banana bread, dozens of peanut butter cookies and chocolate chip cookies, pounds and pounds of potatoes, 48 rolls, etc...etc... to feed my seven plus 20 extra college students. I have been very busy! What a beautiful day. The "kids" are still crowded into my living room alternately dancing, playing games, singing, flopped down on the floor... It is soooooo loud and wonderful! So many languages spoken... it is beautiful bedlam!

Thank you all so very much!!! ❤️When finals are finished in a couple weeks, there will be another celebration with "our" beautiful kids from around the globe! I am on day three of celebrations this week, so I have only a moment to stop by. I will catch up with you all soon! Thank you again for sharing my joy and thankfulness for these lovely friends.

I love the excitement and diversity! My heart fills with joy in that type of labor of love. Probably what I miss most about kids growing up and moving on.

What a great time❣️ Mmm banana bread is one of my fav things to make. With Christmas coming up I was experimenting with gingerbread cookies... but maybe baking crack is more my pace....

I don't know how I missed this - I'm just glad I found it now. Feasting with the eyes - all of it. The food, the people, the love. Wonderful.

Thank you, moo, Bella, wifey! I love having them over even if it feels like locust desending on the food! If only you could hear them singing and see them dance! A boy from Algeria and a girl from Egypt were teaching something closer to a Near Eastern style of dancing. Several of the kids have recently started a club at the college they call, "African Style Dance." So much energy and fun in my living room! I have a week to get ready for the next time! 😁
