My Heart Melts

The first week I was back in Trujillo, I went out to Wichanzao to the church were I've been teaching English to kids. We went out there to do some promotion for our new English classes. It was a little strange to walk down those streets and up to the church again after being gone for about three weeks. But, as I walked up to the church doors one of my most dedicated students from last semester spotted me from the soccer field nearby. As soon as he say me, he yelled out, "Teacher Amanda!" from all the way across the soccer field. I went over to say hello to him and he gave me a huge hug and kiss on the cheek. And, my heart just melted. He's a great kid.
