Thank Yous

Finally, there are some special people who deserve thanks:

• Liz, Fernando and family: You guys were so great. Nuff said.
• Ann, Sam and family: You guys seemed like old friends from the moment we met, and are just really fun. We can't wait to reconnect.
• Maestra Catalina: What an awesome semester Bryce and Laurel had, primarily thanks to you. In particular, you always spoke to them in Spanish first, even when English would have been easier, and they learned a ton.
• The other teachers at school: You are all awesome people. Laurel and Bryce have grown so much, and really had fun.
• Mr. Jim: You challenged Bryce, yet he had fun, and he learned a ton of math and other useful thinking skills. You are a gem.
• Rocio: You won over our kids without speaking a lick of English, as well as Sue and me with your incredible cooking and hard work. You are also a gem.
• Our other friends: You all made this adventure fun. I hope we can reconnect with you in the not-too-distant future.
• Antonio: I really enjoyed our time together, and I appreciate how you brought us into a few bits and pieces of your world. And of course the help with my Spanish. Muchas gracias!
