Gettin’ Educated

We’ve mentioned before that education takes some creativity here.  I think I am finding, at this point, that early frustrations can bear some beautiful fruit.  I am enjoying the education process so much right now, even though we have our share of mundane days over math and re-writing sentences yet again.  I feel thankful that education here also includes soccer with local friends, crafting with Bedouin friends in their tents, electives with our ex-pat community here, a parent-run preschool full of all the sweet preschool musts, nature walks, a co-op in the capital where we can learn things like Renaissance art and engineering, and even a chance to take climbing lessons!  It all keeps us on our toes but I can honestly say I love it in this season and am thankful for the chance to finally pay attention to Greek history this time around…
