Merry Christmas from China! This is what greeted me as I entered the school today. I was rushing, running through my lesson plan in my head, and he made me stop in my tracks and laugh out loud. Things like this are what I love about China.
This week I taught my students how to make caramel popcorn in class. They'd never tried it before! I bribed them into sending you a Christmas message before they got to eat. This is class KO84, arguably my worst class ever...but for treats they'll do anything! :)
I'd be lying if I said I'm not missing home. This is my first Christmas away from my family and I miss you all dearly. Its not the same without you. But as my student poetically told me, your family always lives in your heart. Thank you for the gifts and the emails and the messages of love. I can feel your love 7000 miles away. You'll be in my heart this Christmas, as always.
Peace, love, and joy.

That class looks HUGE! How many students do you have? Are you the only teacher in there or do you have some help?
