We wake up in the morning, Scott and I go to work. The kids work on their summer reading during the day… Well, Nahm does. I think Charlie is saving his, hoping to make that … Continue reading →.

The Adventures of a Delaware AFS Host Family. East meets West meets chaos. Newer posts →. How’s it going? August 17, 2010. So far, so good. Nahm has a great sense of humor, which helps, I think, in this family. Charlie remains crazy about his new big sister. The computer puzzle is solved. Tomorrow we solve the class registration puzzle. The cell phone puzzle still has me baffled. A short story about Noodles…. August 14, 2010. Nahm thinks that these noodles are the bee’s knees. They make her so happy.

Surprised by the Mundane | The Adventures of a Delaware AFS Host Family

The Adventures of a Delaware AFS Host Family. East meets West meets chaos. It’s about time. Surprised by the Mundane. August 28, 2010. Today I’m taking the kids back to school shopping. Last night I was reminded of the driving to the mall involved in having a teenage girl in the house when Nahm went to the mall with the other girls who are being hosted by our high school. There are a lot of youth exchanges out there, but I believe AFS. Was one of the first, if not the first. It’s mission. And it is true&...

The Adventures of a Delaware AFS Host Family. East meets West meets chaos. Hectic Evening, Hectic Day →. A new kind of music. August 19, 2010. Nahm and Charlie are working on the dishes. Every so often I hear Nahm say “Charles” in a wonderful Thai falling tone. In English it sounds quite stern. The snippets of conversation are hysterical. Nahm, trying to teach Charlie words in Thai. 8220;I don’t want to say that…”. A little later…. 8220;I think I don’t want to…”. This entry was posted in AFS. Enter your ...

Hectic Evening, Hectic Day | The Adventures of a Delaware AFS Host Family
https://hostfamilyadventures.wordpress.com/2010/08/20/hectic-evening-hectic-day
The Adventures of a Delaware AFS Host Family. East meets West meets chaos. A new kind of music. This is not my AFS Student →. Hectic Evening, Hectic Day. August 20, 2010. Tonight the kids went to a get together of all the AFS kids who will be at their school this year, and their host siblings. When we went to pick them up, there was a low hum of laughter and chatter, sort of like the kind that makes me never want to walk into a mac store again. Or like a vuvuzela. They seemed to have a really nice time.

This is not my AFS Student | The Adventures of a Delaware AFS Host Family

The Adventures of a Delaware AFS Host Family. East meets West meets chaos. Hectic Evening, Hectic Day. Maybe I should re-name the blog… →. This is not my AFS Student. August 22, 2010. She is not the student I deserve, not the student that karma matched up with me, at least not the karma I would expect. This is a different kind of karma – the kind where your own shortcomings are clearly laid out and illustrated for you by the juxtaposition of the good that is possible. This entry was posted in AFS.

The Adventures of a Delaware AFS Host Family. East meets West meets chaos. How’s it going? A new kind of music →. August 17, 2010. Some things got accomplished today. Not everything, but some things. That the next step is to look in to adding her to my existing plan. The only issue there is that we need to do a two year contract, but the savings might be worth it. We’ll see. So I have to call Verizon. Oh, yeah. This post has nothing to do with grapes. This entry was posted in AFS. How’s it going? I think...
