School has been out for a few days now, so my family and I have gotten started on our summer plans. My brother Eli is working in the galley for his summer project until he goes to the U.S with my mom. He helps out by washing dishes, peeling and cutting veggies, and cooking. I have been babysitting my brother Xavier as well as Stephen, a busy little one and a half year old. I am also helping Malachi with his summer project by teaching him his U.S states and capitals. Another thing Malachi is working on is his typing skills. My dad is working his job and filling in for his boss at the same time. My mom is, well, being a mom.
In June I will fly to North Carolina to stay with my friend Bethany for a week and a half. Then I will go to Washington State to visit my grandma and cousins. My mom and Eli will be in Washington as well. In July my mom and I will go to Texas so I can get my visa to France. Then we will go back to Washington. My mom and brother will return to the ship in mid July. I will stay in the U.S until mid August when I will go to France.
One activity I will be doing in Washington is visiting a monastery on Shaw island for two weeks. I will stay in a guest house and help the nuns on the farm. I might repair fences, feed animals, clean stalls, or even learn to make cheese!
This summer includes a lot of moving around, but I know it will be all the more fun because of all the different places and people I will visit.
