Anna's Sports Day

Hello All! This update is from a while ago, but I failed to include it in our last entry. On December 9th, Anna’s school held a sports day at the Don Bosco Youth Center here in Pune. It was really well organized and a lot of fun. It started with a dance and then all of the kids were dressed up like animals. Anna’s group was little red hens. They were to run to a certain spot, dump flour from a shaker into a bowl, then pick up a loaf of fake bread and run to the finish line. While she did not come in first place, she did manage to get all of the flour out of her shaker before running on. We were so proud to see her follow directions. At the end, the parents were invited to participate in a few silly races. Chris and I were to pass a balloon behind our heads and alternately between our legs while trying to reach the finish line. Needless to say we did not win, but we did manage to look very silly. Thank goodness, nobody took pictures. Afterward, we had brunch with friends at a local hotel and later attended another friend’s 3rd birthday party. It was a long day, but we all had a great time. Next up, our trip to Lonavala!
