When it rains it pours

We have been told that this is the start of the rainy season and others have warned us of a hurricane in the area. Needless to say, it's been a little rainy. Friday was a particularly rainy day. A good bunch of kids stayed home from school because of the rain. I woke up not feeling well but found the rain and the kids motivation to get up and go to school. It stopped raining just in time for us to walk the kids over to the house for class.  Class was really hard for me that day. Ashley and I ended up team teaching both lessons because my throat started hurting after talking over them so much. After school I went and took a nap. When I woke up I was freezing and knew I must have a fever. The girls at my other school offered to take over the rest of my classes for the day so I could stay and rest. I'm really grateful they did. It would have been a very rainy walk and miserable time teaching. Another tender mercy of that day was having soup for dinner. The cook very rarely makes soup, but I couldn't have been more grateful to see that pot of soup waiting for us. It may have had chicken bones and other questionable things in it, but it was soup and it did my body good. We went for a walk to the pharmacy and bought some medicine to hopefully help me get better fast. When we came home we watched a movie upstairs under a shelter while it rained behind us. It was beautiful.
